Forced Exit

Forced Exit

A Poem by Red Brick Keshner

 

`



dour faced
you stepped into a paging precipice
leaving me
my face moist

at the threshold
its frame now leaning
to one side
splintered and unhinged

did i tell you that my front door
never opened to the street
maybe i never had the need to
you always entered through the back door

you always crept out the window
to play in the sun
this time was different

before another word could be spoken
you brushed past me
blocking my outstretched arm(s)
and all I could see

was your hair tumbling in the air
as your limbs flailed
while you plummeted out of my life
