POEM: "I Shall Not Care"



I Shall Not Care


I shall not care
there are no poems
in gas stations, or
birds steal things
the sight unseen
not even missed
I close the book
of you, of photos
of what we saw
most is forgotten.

  1. I can't speak highly enough of Mr. Slate's "On The Seawall" literary site. But check it out for yourself. You will find the gas stations in the link below.
