Titles

"The Poet Dies" in
 "A Trashy Neighborhood".
Why was he there?
He might tell us if he could.
He was sitting all alone,
Lost in "Introspection"
Or thinking of something he had seen
In the opened newspaper section.
It was "Twilight" time,
A poet's time of day.
Perhaps he was composing a poem,
"Lost Words " he will never say.
