December Collage Poem: Disappointment - Part 1
The difference is disappointment
drowning in a child's mouth
Ladies for tea please leave
that tasty last cake for me!
Brought back to life,
but find nothing but silent blackness
A smile, a nod, generosity and warmth
I haven't been disappointed
The Beatles all white album
on a railway platform
summer is in their eyes
too full of chocolate and inspiration
Evil life or saintly death?

This everyday drinker shown
has the hangover of
christmas and new year
no one must suffer!
