The Flower in the Wire

Clearly this poem is open to interpretation. However, consider all the things in life; what you see, what you hear, what you feel, that just don’t seem to add up. What am I missing?

Notes on a fence post,

The flower in the wire.

Dreams of the West Coast,

Before the deadly fire.


Love in the hen house,

The children are at the door.

Feel like a trapped mouse,

Slinking cats upon the floor.


Flames in the dark sky,

Illuminate the tower.

Tears in the red eye,

Reveal their final hour.


Sound for a deaf man,

But no one cares to listen.

Laughs for a dead pan,

There must be something missing!
