The Web Poetry Corner - Doug Larson - Husk

Husk

by

Doug Larson

Drained and brittle dry
a cicada’s husk am I
sucked clean exhausted sigh
the denouement of the day

Eviscerated spent and flop
upon expectant bed
a hurricane spins like a top
inside my weary head

The night creeps bug-like
hours wane like minute trains
measured time a voltage spike
the morning comes again

Thus the empty days must pass
summer sun winter rains
this repetitious stale morass
of sweet life’s gentle pain
