The Geese Have Flown But The Bumps Remain

Copyright 2004 by: Mark V Sheldon

Somewhere
between now and when
the climate changed
beckoning the flock
with more hot air

My dreams followed
suit gone south
on a wild chase
to greener pastures
bills filled while I hollowed

Set sale
everything as a price
to pray with currency
and keeping down the Joneses
who flail

My gray shun
the open skies
deep blue reflections
crippling image & nation
where all are none

Left behind a loan
paying do’s with
didn’ts
while the bumps remain
and the geese have flown

Hi Ron. No worries... just in a reflective state, sprinkled with cynicism and multi-faceted metaphorical wordplay...
