![]() InvitationA Poem by AJ DouglasI don't fear death as so many do I've sent him embossed invitations bordered in black and handwritten in conscientious calligraphy bought the best wine I could afford cooked a candlelight dinner for two lowered the lights anticipating his arrival like an anxious lover awaiting a knock upon my door only to end up spending the evening alone sulking in disconsolate silence I would never dare to make demands on him as I'm sure he has more pressing matters to attend to or maybe he plans to surprise me © 2023 AJ Douglas |
