a new ending,
by Andrew S Adamshere is another moment, walking through this thicket.
the skies part, the sun shines, the rain falls,
the commas separate sentences, and periods
never signify the end,
only a new beginning.
a new beginning, what are we talking about?
the guns are pointed in every direction,
but mostly pointed to you, what did you do?
there is another hope, but you fucked it up.
a new beginning, where were we yesterday?
question marks mark the map, blur the roadways,
pen scribbles dot the atlas, a huge question,
hailing a new beginning.
A new beginning?
everything we've learned before.
a new beginning?
no. a new beginning. 10/12/2003 Author's Note: changed the first and last lines a titch, per bob arcania's comment.

| Posted by Bob Arcania on 10/12/03 at 08:37 PM I don't know why, but I think the first line would sound better if it started with 'here' instead of 'there'. And the ending was, eh. A bit predictable, maybe? So common, as well, when I really liked the rest of it. It still gets a 'good job' despite the ending. |
