As I have revived the Weekly Wednesday poem, I am also reviving the Original Thursday poem. [Insert applause here.] I have hundreds of poems from the past that I can share with you, and I hope that the revivification of this feature of the blog will inspire me to create more.
Devil With A Forked Tongue
One golden morning early,
You looked in my eyes across the table,
And said,
“You’ll never find another man like me.”
I was touched.
Yes.
Touched in the head.
In hindsight,
I should have stabbed you in the tongue with my fork
And run.
Yes.
Stuck a fork in you.
We’re done.
