The List

The List

A Poem by Brianetics

i carry around a list

in my head
of people i wouldn't
mind seeing dead
 
it ebbs and flows
on any given day
wishes granted
changes of heart
 
but at the bottom
there is a space
a name written
and erased
 
rewritten and erased
so many times
it has become
almost illegible
 
i almost forget
whose name it is
the last on my list
even though it is mine

Wow that's really dark. Hope I'm not on your list! LoL. Seriously people can be frustrating. I think we all carry lists. Good simplistic write. It flowed very well. Thanks!
