A rusty patina
that won’t hide
behind paint
of promise
Eating away
at the everyday
So slowly
the disintegration
takes untold tolls
projecting
preempting
predicting
an intangible
into too late

Lovely pondering - it's (almost) never too late, Lori.

I have a few brillo pads that can
help with the cleanup...but sometimes,
just sometimes, the hole caused
by the rust? Well, it becomes time
for replacements by then.
