Wordsmith Wednesday – Poem V

“That’s mine!”
I yell,
as the guard throws another
piece of my flesh
to the hounds.

He laughs,
as their frothy mouths
attack insatiable.
“If you would stop
wandering in here,
we wouldn’t keep doing this.
You know that you may leave
in any moment.”

I respond,
as I always do,
“I will stay a little longer.”

When life offers us so rich a bounty of inspiration, how can we help but to reflect in writing all that climbs into our hearts and takes up residence there?
