Long Bed bug Poems

I opened my heart

I prayed the psalms at dawn, at four hours after midnight

At the crossroads
The bald old man
With his gray stricken beards
Caressed his antiquated flute
Perching on his cracked dehydrated lips
With his spindly fingers
As he nonchalantly reeled out his tunes

Not Let Each Bed Bug Bite

In the form section Poetry Soup
