November 2024 Collage Poem: Chasing Dreams

entry picture

Lined up to respect the harder life

A jackass of fools in a tangled steel suitcase

A SHAKING SHIFT OF FURNITURE

 

He is the pied piper of our times

Who knows how to play the odds

The Pied Piper carries the dreams of his followers

under maples flashing and slashing in an autumn that seems dead.

 

To dream in the hope the winter will be a subdued epoch

            of darkness before the light.

Perpetual contentment, a cargo of pride and joy

            under an egg-white sun

All because she said our Family never travels far.
