Only cracked was the closet door
dared you open it a little more???
hard to resist what
in your mind persists....
the hangers give way to what
hangs there every day
over your head
too deep to give way
figure you can't win
for losing
like all of the rest
chicken long gone
the hen flew from the nest
now pecking away at
anothers sorrow and grief
feeding off the empty
begging for relief....

The rhyming is more of a distraction from the images here, perhaps starting with the hens will stamp a sharper bolder message.


good luck,

The angst fairly exhudes from this, fine writing... John
