Filler Poem by Laurence Overmire

Filler

Rating: 5.0


Sometimes I feel like I’m
Just filling space
Like a poem
In someone’s newspaper

Glanced over with
Morning coffee
And a piece of toast
Hoping and praying

That somehow I don’t
Wind up, crumpled and stained
On the bottom of
Some cat’s litter box.
