  • rural dirt road intersection in countryside
    Crossroads

    I saw her at the 

    Crossroads, black dog at her heel

    A torch in her hand

    Another drink, a day gone

    Torch burning in the darkness

Poem #182 (Coffee and Blood)

Cup, grey ceramic

cut, the edge of the lip

on the rim. Blood

begins to surface

droplets mix

with coffee and cream.

 

Thank you for reading my work!
