Introspection

 

Every few decades

In silent comfort,

I ask,

Who am I?

The response is like

Gunfire in a canyon.

Birds scatter, dogs howl

And a rescue team

Scrambles for answers

Until the search is called off.

      Thank you. I write a great deal of poetry but rarely share it and that requires some introspection.
