PAD 04/23/10

Day 23 of the April Poem a Day Challenge.  Prompt:  exhaustion

WHAT WILL HAPPEN

when I'm too tired
to tell my stories

when lucille's fox*
comes to the door

and I have to say
come again another day

when all the terrible
stories say to me

I am locked in the blood
and here to stay

*Lucille Clifton
