Two poems written in a crack motel

By TestPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

I wonder if this room has

Seen better days

With all these patched

Up walls?

{

I've been in depressing

Rooms where you know

It by the air and this

One is heavy.

{

Maybe it's just the lighting,

Though I have a feeling

It's not.

There's a broken fire alarm,

Damaged furnace and

The exposed insides of

An electrical outlet.

{

Aside from sight

Too much has gone on in here.

I can actually feel it

..

My mind runs over

To the theatre where

I watch imagined

Cinema.

{

Dramas,

Satire,

Comedic tragedies,

Adult screenings,

All playing any time

Regardless of genre.

{

All it takes is an

Idea, or stopping

On a particular thought

To watch a universe unravel.

{

I've seen myself married,

My children,

A life with women I've

Never been with,

My successes

And my death.

{

Fantasies of reality

Playing like a movie

In my head.
