John Lawless Poet Free verse

Vagrant

Vagrant thoughts
Hang about the corners
Of my mind
Idly tormenting each other
Daring
At least one
To take hold
Take shape
Cast a shadow
On the unknown.

Valsa George April 20, 2023 at 7:25 PM Vagrant thoughts keep coming. Only rarely do thy take hold. They just come and go. Great penning. The mischief of the brain is succinctly brought forth. All the best in the contest dear John.

Gershon Wolf April 20, 2023 at 6:41 PM V is for vagrant; v is for vague. One is bubonic; the other's a plague. ~ Craig
