Away

Away

A Poem by Jamie Charbonneau
"

Running away together would not be a good idea... but it might be the best decision we would ever make.

"

If I desired,
you would make
it happen.

"Let's go."


Run away together to
L.A.        or
N.Y.C.     or
anywhere that isn't here,
where we can be
together.

Join an acting troupe.
Wait tables during the day.
Theater performance at night.
Go back home to our
Leaky-One Room-Economy
Broken-Heater-But-It's-Cheap
apartment where we pass
out exhausted in each other's
arms only to wake up the same way
on a lumpy, broken futon.

           Just
           Let
           Go

2 weeks notice.
No show.
Drop out.
Drop everything.
Pick a direction.

Drive.

I like the structure of the piece- This has a devil may care flair to it- it made me want to give all up and join the circus. Serouisly I quite enjoyed this piece- It makes me want to know the writer behind the poem-

Last word of piece -Drive- it reminded me of the movie Easy Rider-- good stuff....

I just found myself randomly showing up on your page...
then clicking on a poem, reading..
and enjoying the hell out of it..
To scroll down and find that I've already been here.
^_^ Amazingness! I'm so adding you.

Very well done, I liked the feling you added that makes you want to just leave. Wonder Lust. I am trying hard not to give into it. Very well done.
