253rd Virtual Poetry Circle
Welcome to the 253rd Virtual Poetry Circle!
Remember, this is just for fun and is not meant to be stressful.
Keep in mind what Molly Peacock’s book suggested.
Look at a line, a stanza, sentences, and images; describe what you like or don’t like; and offer an opinion. If you missed my review of her book, check it out here.
Today’s poem is from Jim Morrison's Wilderness: Volume 1 from page 57:
I dropped by to see you
late last night
But you were out
like a light
Your head was on the floor
& rats played pool w/ your eyes
Death is a good disguise for late at night
Wrapping all games in its calm garden
But what happens when the guests return & all unmask & you are asked to leave for want of a smile
I'll still take you then But I'm your friend
What do you think?
