in this kind of light


and always
on a bench
on the dock
on this kind of day
in this kind of light
a few old men
buttoned in
their dark coats
and dispositions
listening
to each others'
long stories
their hearing aids
turned off

Very nice. I can see the men so clearly.

Um....you think this is poetry? Never write again.....ever again.....please. Burn everything you have, there isn't a brilliancy in the bunch. This is insulting to the born poet.
