IMAGE OF EARTH AND QUILL

Guest Poet Jason Wilson


THE MIST

He thought about the future
obsessed with what would come
He never thought about today
his chance moved up and on

His life so full of deep regret
for those many chances missed
yet never does he board his train
just wanders in the mist

September 1997
