A Poem

This is an excerpt of a poem I apparently wrote a week ago. I don't even remember it. This is how it came out of my brain, with one or two changes. I just thought I'd post it here:


Every time
Opportunity rings,
I cannot answer the door
I never see what is on the
other side
Won't someone call
Whose prayer I can answer?
Or is it I who must do the ringing?

I thought I left the door ajar,
But have I kept it bolted?
Under lock and key
That I swallowed years ago.

There the key sits
Amongst the contents of my
Unsettled stomach

You are fantastic, just so you know. I've been watching your YT videos for a while, and just saw that you had blogger. Love the poem!
