Poems
Jan 2018
Untitled
Hard stone skin
is slightly glittering,
temperature shifting
seasonally,
a place full of friends,
and literary kin.
Carnegie classic
home to the fantastic
collection.
Stairs to the entrance
and a black bannister
on which I slide
even though I was told
so many times
not to.
A sanctuary
from the abuse
a gateway
that I used
to escape my isolation
and find myself
enlightened and amused
friendly fictions
books well bound
my little safe space
in a redneck town.
Soon it will change.
They are not tearing it down
but building a better building
near the outskirts of town
But to Sarah, Kathy
Karen, and Tammy
whether you know it or not
you are my family
and though things change
as they always will
this was my home.
