poem - message


by dog e relaford



please leave a message
or maybe not
you are entitled
to your own beautiful thoughts

if your thoughts are not beautiful
do not despair
perhaps you have
something else to share

write a little poem
or a haiku or bon mot
watch the sky turn red
and the river flow

no use running
you will be caught
you may be hanged
or you may be shot

you may die in the street
or die in bed
it’s all lincoln nebraska
in your head

so fasten your sear belt
and wear a smile
there’s a dog in every house
and a bride coming down every aisle
