PAD 2022 Day 11: Power


 This poem is presented in its rough draft form for the PAD 2022 challenge and will be revised. 


PAD Prompt: Power

Poetic Form: Stornello


“Power Over Me”


Like the cold wind during a December storm,

you fill the spaces between my bones, can’t warm

my hands or my breath while caught in your dark swarm.


I shield my eyes against the hail of regret.

The driveway a winter percussion duet

with the cement of choices I can’t forget.
