Here's one I wrote yesterday for JD Mader’s 2minutesgo writing exercise on his website, Unemployed Imagination. I wrote four poems yesterday and posted them there. Head over to read stories and poems, comment or write your own. Write whatever you like. It’s open every weekend. Cheers
The tremor
Footsteps
wake the tremor,
the
obsequious hum, the filament,
this breath
of fire eluding us,
electric
mayhem on the wire.
A
switchback. We all feel it.
We pour
water on our passions,
rehearse a
million excuses for no.
Run in
stasis; see how far you get.
A peer into
the future rides us back,
returning
to our childhood dreams,
these
sparks of light we held so dear,
the
pirouetting ballerina, the acorn tree.
