A Poem to Share

I generally save my poetry for my poetry blog, "From the Mind of a Versifying Artist", but I felt like sharing this one on here as well. A fairly new one, wrote it just earlier this week, if I remember correctly.

Thoroughfare Vagrant

small gamine
squalling
a token of
abandonment

frame fatigued
and worn
dogs barking
shuffling
staggering along

perception is
attentive
trepidation encircling
anticipate
every night terror
drawing breath

attempts to
remain afloat
recollection of
a barren
buckthorn

recumbent on
cobble stone
drawing the
drapery to
one’s
subconscious
to arise
nevermore
