Once Again

Once Again

Hello!

That's when the troubles came.

We were both sweeping

in seperate lanes and so

lost our footings

Good morning!

That's when the bristles came

We were on the wrong tracks and so

accidents of distress pronounced us

dead and alive

Good bye!

That is something that hangs like

a billboard blocking the sunrise 

shocking the nature of things

smells like singed hair on lightning rods

sizzling the sight and the sounds of doves

Ohhhhh-Mega-Ouchies! Poor little pup has gotten himself too close too danger, as we do so many times in our lives. Wrong time, wrong place, just wrong..and then gone...great verse form with leading lines, flow, cleverness of language, metaphor, alliteration, imagery. Billboards blocking painful memories. Great poem E. P.S. Hope pup is rid of the barbs and feeling much better!!
