An image prompt this week for Read Write Poem.
I bow down
Kneel before this hazard
Ahead of me
Standing tall isn’t an option
I’ve created this monster
An anomaly
Not beyond repair
Just slightly out of reach
I bow down
Kneel before this hazard
Ahead of me
Standing tall isn’t an option
I’ve created this monster
An anomaly
Not beyond repair
Just slightly out of reach

I like this image, and how you posted the photo after wards, because you could see the picture before it really appears...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, succinct capture - almost like the words are a photo, too!
ReplyDeleteThe words sing to you!
ReplyDeleteNice!

I like the rhyme at the third and sixth lines and the dark tone is well constructed.
ReplyDelete"out of reach" is a wonderful ending to this poem....lovely and thanks for sharing this
ReplyDeleteJust slightly out of reach - an excellent line which probably slightly fits almost everything! I love it.
ReplyDeletesimple works well for this. I especially like the ending (is Knell what you wanted or a typpo?)
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Nice catch; that was a typo.
