Original Work #6

Working with the 'less is more' concept here.

Story of Frailty

It takes me eight days
to come up with an ending,

but I finally,
finally
allow myself to cry over you -

a story barely written.
My fingertips, still wet with ink from the prologue,
are washed clean.
Absolution for both our misguided…

Oh, never mind.

Some stories are ineffable.

Take it easy, baby.
I’ll take my pen off your table.
