The Earth Was Moving Slower Poem by Barbara James
The Earth Was Moving Slower
Rating: ★5.0
The earth was moving slower
it wasn't me there
when they said that mother died.
Echoes upon echoes.
Sorrows never end.

Many laments seem to me, subtly superficial. This piece is just a hair-shy of a lament but somehow deeper and more genuine. Again, excellent work Barbara. -Tailor
