the rough of a moment

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

the rough of a moment in the rough of a moment cut out of the imperfect edges of my character in my emptiness i am looking searching for that one sunset they all promised would hold the peace that i crave and the red smears into orange and the orange fades into blue and i’m left cold in the chill that has leapt off the ocean and into my heart i shiver with my mind and move quietly away into the darkening light that holds no tranquility only the darkening promise of another sunset of another chance to catch the rough of a moment Written August 28th, 2001 © on Aug 28 2001 10:21 AM PST   0 • 10
