it's like a bad movie
by Delilah Coynei keep waiting for something to happen
something that will draw me in-
involve me
i sit there watching
hoping that
at any moment
something monumental will hold my attention
make me bite my nails
and capture me
surely the very next line
will reveal something worth hearing
something that makes all the drivel thus far
meaningful
a silent black screen
it's over
the credits roll and music plays
nothing of consequence
what a waste of time 12/04/2006 Posted on 12/04/2006
