An Early Comeback!

Sadly, I abandoned NaNoWriMo not long after I started it in favor of developing a character that fell into my lap.  Stay tuned for more on that front as things develop further.  In the meantime, I was able to overcome my writers block (thank goodness), and I have some poems to share with you!  I won't overwhelm you, instead I'll dole them out at an appropriate pace.

The first was inspired by a scene from a Philadelphia street.



"Staircases"

Racing, racing,
always faster
Up these steps
Down those steps
Narrow and steep
Dark and chilled
Always moving
Always going

Light this fire
Make the bed
Lay out the clothes
Bring in the flowers
Bake the bread
Dust the mantle
Announce the visitor

Keep moving
Always going
Constant motion
To ensure perfection

To what end?
For whose benefit?
With what impact?
Why??
