Return Ticket Poem by Melanie Emikohe

Return Ticket



The coffee on your desk
is now lukewarm;
ants feasting a whip
of marmalade.
Still without a clue.

I have come a long way
for this; played death
with the customs
and knocked down
some punks in the alley.

It seems like
I don't have to unpack.
The pilot will be richer
by half and the cab driver
calls this a luck.

Nice write Melanie, neat and to the point, very well constructed. Enjoyed it. Love and hugs Ernestine XXX
