Golden Years?

 By Charlotte Mair

 

Monday zoooooooooom ________ Friday __ too fast!

Another second, minute, hour, day … year

All roll into one___ six decades

 

Remaining the same? Outside begs to differ

Ghosts walk the id __ blinding-paralyzing

A frost bitten stagnation, motoring through the maze

 

Fallen, lame __ dragged through mud and decay

Scarred, riveted by hot tongues of fire

Lame, crawling, reaching __ blindfolded

 

Ever pressing, depressing, stressing

Through a needle eye of hope

Veiled paradox __ clamoring __ unsung
