Come home to wash off the day at work,
The drag of unsteady hours,
Lousy coffee from a secluded stop,
Along the drive to so called hell,
Cigarette in hand,
Clouding the musty kitchen,
Dust flies up and shows through the window,
The sun reflects through...


I started writing this a few days and I really have no idea where to go with it so a few suggestions would be really appreciated! Thanks...*

This starter-piece painted the picture of a middle-aged man pondering the life that he leads. I can see him walking into the place he calls his home, sullen and slow, setting down his day's needs only to hang his head in front of the evenings falling sun. The start you have is very good, as it is very visual... I would suggest possibly going on to tell about what questions/cares he holds in his heart. Good start... I'm anxious to see where it leads!
