-- Ketchum, 1961 --


In a den,
a rug is rolled up
leaning against the side
of an pictured laden oak wall.

A lion's head mounted
on a plaque looks forward
glassed-eye he missed
the chair tipped over

resting on a the flow of words
spilling across the floor
to the journey's end.

ahh thank you kindly...yeah i had this as like a 6 line poem and i was striving to make it very fragmented but someone was kind enough to point out how it needs to expand...so i feel it has become a stronger poem in the process...thanks

Good lines but needs editing .

It's a pictured laden and probably should be glass-eyed rather than glassed eye.Joyce

Hi Zagg

Have to agree with Joyce, an excellent write, but needs a bit of editing.
