Poems
Dec 2016
after midnight
******,
I forgot to tell you goodnight
I was too tired to open my mouth
too exhausted to form a thought
but many thoughts came on later
that evening; I was worried
you might get angry with my
silence
secretly harbor resentment;
retire to your dreamland
and keep me outside
the pearly white fences;
I'd whimper to come back in;
and I'm sure
you'd hesitate
(like you always do)
before unlocking the gate
and welcoming me
into your garden of good graces.
