Laundry

Laundry

A Poem by terry smith

In Hell...
there is a river of tears,
where you go to do your laundry.
Beating your soul against the rocks.
Alcohol is used...
to try and get it clean...
You beat and beat,
till there is nothing left,
but a few tattered threads.

I sit and wait on the bank,
for those few strands to dry.

Thanks Cherry! :D
hell must be just up the road because I swear I know this place all too well...if we're lucky the wind doesn't blow those remaining strands away...but hey, at least there are 'spirits'!!
