A Pen, in Gravity's Hands

By lupus tenebrae

You know,
this is barely even
a poem,

it's more 
like a pen
left in gravity's
hands

clattering on
a distant floor
in surrender.

    haha yes it sounds like a tired hand needs a break, thirty days of writing can really challenge the mind. I say let gravity take it for now. lol...an excellent picture painted with this, made me smile, seeing your hand and ink so exhausted. awesome!
