Another Hot August Night
(septolet)
Far
from home,
I miss
the city lights.
Time
to find
my way back.
Notes:
The Septolet is a poem consisting of seven lines containing fourteen words with a break in between the two parts. Both parts deal with the same thought and create a picture.
Regarding the photo: I took this picture a few years ago at a book release party. It has always made me think of Neil Diamond's song and the words:
"I am"...I said
To no one there
And no one heard at all
Not even the chair
"I am"...I cried "I am"...said I
And I am lost and I can't
Even say why
Leavin' me lonely still."
