January 2012 Write Out Loud Collage Poem
Tonight is the night
These boots are made for show
Written by an indignant hand,
More dignified than mine
Thin as wire, quick as fire
Quick as swallows backward in the night
A peacution freeze
In the midnight breeze
And to that wretched end,
We sold our souls
New beginnings, novel readings
Mindless mercies
You’re never too old to be told
A fragment concludes the given jest
Older persons know what to do, when to do it
And it is best done slowly than not at all.
