Last Minute


the eleventh hour

lurks

in all those dark corners

hoping

I let it pass

me

by

like days

dreams

and those moments

hanging 

in the gallows

of 

memory


but not this time


 I cling

to the oiled rope

sweat-slick

swinging

in the seconds

left

in the day




 Day 11 of 31

  1. Wow! I love this one, Jenny. Such strong imagery all the way through,but this got me:
    "I cling
    to the oiled rope
    sweat-slick
    swinging
    in the seconds
    left
    in the day"
