Because the new year is for sticking to self inflicted resolutions, I resolve to at least once a week post a poem. In turn I think everyone should resolve to at least once a week read a poem, but last I heard I don't think I'm allowed to make resolutions for other people. Still, I'll try to subtly help you along by sharing some poems I find the most interesting and the places I love to look for them.
I'm assuming that most people are still recovering from the holidays so today's poem is short. Not simple, but at only 3 lines, it's a quick read. Enjoy!
"On Last Lines" by Suzanne Buffam
The last line should strike like a lover’s complaint.
You should never see it coming.
And you should never hear the end of it.
