Poem: A Second Chance

[As I work through this manuscript, The King Begins To Falter, I am, naturally, reworking or tossing out the poems that don't work. Expect many more over the next couple of months. In addition to rewriting many, I also need to delete about 120 pages of poems.]


Second Chance
by Jack Brummet

We cannot really lose
What belongs to us,

Even when we throw it away.
The gathering winds

Blowing through her heart, reverberate
In the echo chamber of regret.
