Resonating Poem

We Are All Rabbits : Makeshift Studios 2013

This wonderful little - untitled - poem was sent to me by Shirley Duke.  She thought her poem resonated with the last blog Jay C and the Tenants of Zero Park.  I thought this was a great example of that interconnected pastiche I am always going on about.  Plus it gave me a chance to use the Makeshift Studios' We Are All Rabbits again.

So many dreams

So many closed doors

Where stood the boy child once

gazing along life's open road,

Now he's the man in shadow

of those million dreams untold.

Cherished ambition ground to dust

The tide of tears, humiliation

Stark defeat, no retaliation.

Shirley
