Poems
Mar 2016
"AHHH...AMI!"
AHHH....AMI!
"Je cherche le mot..."
Her left foot
had gone
. . .asleep.
The rest of her
still
. . . wide awake.
The net curtains
she noticed idly
needed washing
blew back
in an almost
theatrical( how
dramatic)fashion
& there
stood Death
large as life
( so to speak ).
Death itself
like an old fashioned butler
"Almost a Jeeves!"
she chuckled softly
to her self.
"Madame, if I may
...have a word?"
"Oh, Mr. Death
surely not yet...not yet?"
Death smiled
obsequiously.
"Le Roi, s'amuse. . ."
The unfinished Maupassant
falling from her hand.
