Theme Thursday : Statue .

Inevitable .
The statue broke my arm
As I stood ; it meant no harm .
Sitting idle it took me for
Some kin of its , maybe more
for it gripped oh so tight then
Held on fast all through the night .
So I lingered longing
To stroll , watchers drawing ,
Painting stains , a pigeon , leaf .
Seasons by and by I grieve ,
And fractures heal with cement to seal .
Vigor wanes
I remain
Once begun
Entropy's gain .

Did you create the drawing? I like the way the form of the poem mirrors the angularity of the figure.

Very cool verse. And art. What's not to enjoy?

Tom said...

thanks, all; yes the art is mine. i'll think i'll hold off on the merchandising, though Jeff, until you've become a millionaire.

Statue? That thing is an ensouled elemental. No wonder it wants to break things.

What a poem. You are so talented. Wow.
