The Lions lost last night.
A bummer of a game,
A city’s joy deflated,|
The ominousness of Monday,
Looming as a dark cloud,
That will hover,
Overshadowing Dr. King,
Portending bad times ahead …

Ross Connelly, Hardwick

This poem was posted at the Galaxy Bookshop in Hardwick for the VerseVillage celebration of April Poetry Month.
