Tattoo
Motion of the roadway
Opens floodgates
To almost forgotten journeys
Other people
Other places
Each, all my world
In their own golden moments
Tattooed now onto my heart
Every face
Every voice

Writer’s Digest Word Prompt Thursday Poem
The word prompt for Thursday Poetry today at http://www.writersdigest.com, was “On The Road”
Here’s my burnt offering…
NEXT FOOD 47 MILES
That’s why I stopped
And if I hadn’t
I never would have seen the girl
With hair climbing to Jupiter
And nails that made me think of indelicate things
Like the dangers of toilet procedures
sporting four inch claws
But, damn, this peach pie-
it is sweet hot heaven on my tongue
And I don’t care that this old plate
Has a chip from 1964.
Just drop that thing
On the formica.
I’ll make it disappear.
