Playing poet by Adam Parry

 

Playing poet 

 

Cutting a fine figure

On some historical page

windswept and anxious

bloodshot and lonely.

 

Angst ridden lover, getting

Home on a drunken horse.

Pain free at first light

can’t remember where he’s been,

 

but by mid-afternoon, the

poet’s bored with what he’s never done.

He leaves the sleeping to the new-born

and lies in Judgement’s scorn.
