Time Of Discontent Poem by Richard Provencher

Time Of Discontent



I stand before shadows
on the wall - sodden edges
sharpened with memories
and contemplate
closeness in my being
revelations of my existence
and attempts to gain
the upper hand
with this apparition
- barrier within an alley
of diminishing returns
alley of loveless ambition
a sanctuary for all my boasting.
