as flour goes into

the making of bread.”

Poem:

.

sitting in the city

listening to the sirens
not a native to these environs
hard to adapt to the nitty gritty
the crime, the violence, such a pity
all is lost, nothing is on the horizons

sitting in the city

listening to the sirens
the news tries to be witty
attempts to shine like diamonds
the truth as remote as far off islands
pretending that all is pretty

sitting in the city

.

ME and the Boss

This form is called a Rondel.
