– Went inside myself
in search of my soul…
– It was dark & dreary///
guilt & regrets littered the place—
– “Damn it, soul! Where are you?”
– I searched for days,
but remained soulless…
– Finally, I had no choice —
I called the Soul Police,
who showed up instantly,
with a bullhorn:
– “This is the Soul Police –
c’mon out with your hopes up!”
– It worked! There I was,
all tattered & bruised,
but still and old, viable,
hopeful spirit…
– “Welcome back!”
I said to myself –
– “I’m glad I’m back!,”
I answered.

with a one-way ticket
& too late to cancel
the reservations.

– Held by a clothespin,
I hang on life’s clothesline,,,
a much-used, torn T-shirt,
trying to flop away
my Fruit-of-the-Loom-liness.
