Freshman Poem of the Week

Evolution of a Poem :: Part 4

For those of you wondering, I do think this final draft is the best of the four. Don't separate the poem from its title!


The Hand Reaches Down

Feet flail, fail to find purchase
Fingers dig in to a rain of rocks and clay
Till shoulders give way
To the unforgiving,
Empty,
Air.
