Agency Man!!

a sonnet

Agency man.

 

I wake and wonder where I am.

My hotel room provides no clue.

A door somebody chose to slam

Awakens me to think of you.

Nobody gives a good goddam.

Where they choose to send me to

Paris, Strasbourg orAmsterdam.

I would much rather be with you.

But I am bound to Uncle Sam

By law he is entitled to

Choose where I must go and I am

Bound to obey though I miss you.

I wonder if you miss me too

One half as much as I miss you.

Having to be aware from your family/those you love is a very difficult thing but sometimes the job takes you away.

Well written poem, easily readable and enjoyable.

[Tina Kline]

Very nicely done. Sometimes we don't get to do what we really want. Obligations take us away from the ones we love sometimes.

[Tate Morgan]

Endearing as hell! Very nice as with all your work it has your stamp and is easily identifiable as your hand.I like your work always poignant
