A book for shelf a loss of Art
7 August 2016
Time to depart silent chest heaves
Tears of morrows when bluebirds call
Afresh the start as wind blows leaves
Raked in sorrows hearts don’t recall
Wish me pennies from heaven’s purse
The lips have shut secrets buried
Call me Denise then swear and curse
Uncensored cut movies hurried
We will play game of peak and boo
Like meek blue elf I fit the part
A mind to shame in who is who
A book for shelf a loss of Art
Excuses lame to see me through
I will myself naïve and tart
Reading of the poem:
Hush Little Baby – The Horse Flies
