Poetry, WRITERS WRITE

LAND OF PLENTY (OF NOTHING?)

Posted on by artifiswords

Standing with the
Fridge door ajar…
Full of jars and packages
But nothing to eat?
You’ve done it too?
No surprise…we’re
Spoiled by plenty…
Plenty of nothing
It seems…spoiling

    What we crave isn’t in there, it is companionship and fun.

      True. And it isn’t on TV. Or the internet, although, in all honesty, the friends I have in various places online are as faithful, or more so, than many in daily life who’ve moved or just drifted away.
