Women

The struggle of man

waking up with the world sleeping

the world before the sun

The struggle of man

showering in silence

other than flowing water

and shuffling feet

Avoid the stroller

in front of the door

There’s the sun

The struggle of man

deep breath

so much weight

Empty busses

The struggle of man

enter the common cafeteria

”Breakfast?” She asks.

Philip V. Coombs 10-11am

  1. You can feel the weight of the person as the poem progresses evoking emotion. I like the last line. Goes from something solitary to a type of connectedness if that makes sense. Well done
