Fugitive
It was 1992
when the hurricane came through
destruction in that town
and bringing the law around
i set the house alight
in the dead of night
as it burned to the ground
i put my foot down
sped out of that town
a ghost gone without a trace
It`s been nearly 30 years
not without it`s fears
settled in another town
alert to that knock on my door
because i been there before
a ghost with a secret
Getting something off your chest Brian? Lol. You been watching too much late night TV?
I got the feeling of "hurry, looking constantly over my shoulder and being suspicious of any one I'd never met before". I think you could expand this into something bigger? As I said I got that butterflies in the stomach feeling so you dragged me into your poem. Great work and no mention of you know what?
I love the mystery and intrigue here Brian
leaves the reader for a tonof ways to go with it as I can imagine a few different scenarios.
Well done.
Hope you are well and soon to be no longer a "fugitive from society" due to covid - 19.
Best wishes
Jim
not late night tv,but i must admit i`ve read a couple of thrillers in lockdown.
i guess thats where this came from,also added lots of rhymes to muddy the waters.
A good suspense thriller poem there EB.
I think more story to this poem would be great. Im left with where do we go from here? where are yuou taking me?
