8:18

Topic: toughstuff



8/18, DIRTY WET MUD, BY THREE DAYS OUT OF
CELL, PHONE CALL AFTER DRUNK, PAST 7 WITH
RAIN, ON 2 GALLONS OF HOME BREW & AN oz.
SOME ONE ELSE GREW.
PHONE CALL AFTER DRUNK, "SHE LEFT, I DON'T
KNOW WHERE, FOR THREE DAYS, SHE'S GONE",
AFTER THAT CALLED HER DAD, HE SOUNDED JUST
NUMB, I THOUGHT HE LIED, A BAD JOKE, A
BROKEN INFINITE TUNNEL I NEVER CONCIEVED, I
PRAYED THAT HE WAS LIEING.
HUNG UP THE PHONE & WALKED OUTSIDE, WHERE I
COULD FEEL NUMB, NO TEARS IN THE LIGHTENING
RAIN, AS ANGER BREWED FOR I COULD NOT CRY,
I STOOD IN THE CENTER OF SNAPDRAGON, WITH
MY FIST RAISED HIGH, ASKING WHY, WHY, WHY

I LOST MY HOLY TEMPLE, I LOST MY PUREST
SOUL, & I BECAME DIRTY, WET, & MUD, 8/18

Dillon Rhie

I thought your poem was good but when I see caps it reminds me of yelling and takes away from the read on the poem. It was like reading a story that was so sad and it made me think of the times i've looked at the clock and remembered those tragic moments forever.

I enjoyed this.
