A POEM 22 {revised}

There’s your bounty stripped down naked and standing in the hallway.
Like a spoken word poet.
Eloquence in the rhyme of cadence , in the manufacturing of the words,in the speaking of them.
Another act on the stage.

That trombone playing in the distance.
A cat crossing the street.
Some television somewhere blaring.
The faucets torturous dripping .

And your pen screams at you……….it’s it.
To become just another sharpened pencil.
Zero numbered sheet below it’s tip.
PurgeD-d  that ringing in your ears.
It being the sting of that whip.
