Aftermath Poem by Jeffrey Philip Clegg

Aftermath

Rating: 5.0


After the low spark of the
crackling
fuzzy
red electric guitar
faded to black
somewhere around 6 a.m.
during the weekend

After the Loritabs, alcohol and nicotine
had worn off

And the wisteria was just a
dusty, light purple memory

I came crashing back to earth
all broken again

and

I'm beginning not to
give a damn
anymore.

Hey Putz! I liked this one, a lot! But you knew that. I liked the lines about wisteria and the last stanza. Good work! :)
