Lawrence S. Pertillar - Opossums

What being unforgiving does?
It destroys!
Just like the spread,
Of uncurable cancer.
Leaving many opossums to play dead,
On a road no one cares to travel.
Avoiding an 'acute' way...
Those have come to seek attention!
At the expense of suspense,
And heartbreak dispensed.
Never to be witnessed again.
With that promise to forever keep!



Inspired by:
Leslie Alexis

'Thank you Leslie for your comments.
And providing the inspiration,
from which 'Opossums' got its 'birth'.
I appreciate that.'
