X Marks the Spot
Written: by Tom Wright
January 2015
My memory, Is a site inhabited
By a few shallow graves,
For no painful matter have I interred,
That Satan doesn’t periodically excavate it.
He’s like an aging dog, digging up old bones
Even when I displace to another location,
He shows up marking an x on the spot
Give me the person with burning desire,
And you can have the one with talent.
Tom
