Across the street wait television crews Hoping a bit of exclusive news Will come to them Reward their lurk Give some purpose to their day Across the street wait angry souls Who saw their hopes for a future fold In a house of cards That went down hard For justice, they now pray Across the street wait the accused They gained so much, now stand to lose All that and more A jailhouse door Waits too, to their dismay And I? I wait For lunch |

"Hoping a bit of exclusive news Will come to them Reward their lurk" I love these lines, it just sums up the news media. Wonderful writing Andrew |

We all seem to be waiting for something whilst others wait for love, a taxi, or lunch, we still all wait for something to occur. |

..."Who saw their hopes for a future fold In a house of cards" ~ A far too common scenario that you portrayed very well. Loveya, Belle! Linda |

Ka-RUNCH! Beautifully done, dear lady...you have exquisite timing! You paint the scene beautifully, build the atmosphere to a crescendo, then....knock it all sideways with four little words... I'm a fool for poetry that does that! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
