First Time In A Long Time (Free verse) by EAger to Offend Plugged it into
The electric canal
Slippery
Treachery
Setting the fine hairs taut
Like bear traps.
Weâve been so busy
And somewhat at odds
That doing this
Now
Is a shock.
Like the time I was
Stringing a guitar
The unclipped wires found
An outlet
I clenched like a virgin,
By the time it was done
The wires had crumbled
In my burned hands.
Up the ladder:
It's lonely at the top
Down the ladder:
The Ballade of Hollis Browne

nicely done
You play the guitar? You must be very creative.
Savory Display. Now I have a craving for BBQ. Smells like the work of a bovie wafting through an OR hallway.
I knew it!!! Even your comments are brimming with uninhibited emotion.
Quite witty and well done. Maybe there should be a surgeon general's warning on the packages of guitar strings?
Rarely. I don't often read what you write. This was worth the side trip. I'll swing by again sometime.
