Larghissimo

by Elisabeth Horan

I hoped today would be my last
Day singing – sadness
God, I planned for silence; a
Blessed day of quiet

But it’s strange and loud
This day – unnecessary
Clicks, twitches
I grow nothing;
Use up everything

Since it’s not the last day
Of my life – oddly…  says I  –
Cringe worthy, grimy
meter fashioned from a
Barbed A sharp. Lonesome –

I have to witness the minimum
Of living – what one does to breathe
At times – simply shocking. How
Nothing becomes a song —
