waking everlong

michael raven poems August 16, 2022 1 Minute

trapped in waking
everlong
'lectric lines dancing
with blue fire
oktober skies fallen grey
a bad stumble
is all
before
drifting away like
a nameless stranger
on the wind, a
skittering russet leaf
over broken asphalt
in the distance
their hungry
screams

Oh, I love this one! It’s spooky and makes me long for Fall’s cooling breath.

  This is one of those images I keep chasing in my brain. One day I’ll catch it and make it into something.
