On the bench

Post by hester_prynne » May 11th, 2009, 11:35 pm

A little time
to play in.
A poem,
a reverie,
a look at myself.
An I in my eye,
to relish,
to drip,
like paint
on you
my dear muses......
A wood duck,
preening
in a manmade lagoon.
Me,
perched atop
a beachy gray
picnic table,
feet firmly planted
on the bench
in an unbeatable
nothingness
of being.
Being.
BEING.
"I am a victim of society, and, an entertainer"........DW

The associative allusion works for me.
