saturday morning

a cascading cacophany of plastic bottles
perform a percusive duet
as they bounce arhythmically
on to white porcelain
after exiting
a mirrored medicine chest
announcing my attempt
at a quiet
early
exit

sorry

sh*t

mumbling

muttering

replacing

chest door squeeks closed
after opening silently

shhh

geez

...

damn

I think you should be nominated for Blogspot poet laureate.

Another excellent one.

I've not thought of it before, but we may have a spot for a poet at For Your Success..

Stop by as you have a chance and see what you think. It might be an interesting collaboration.

It never fails. The quieter you try to be the louder the noise! Loved it!

Very flowing, and the image was so easy to find in your description. Excellent.

I hate when you try to be quiet and it sounds like a herd of elephants!
