Day 101 - Recycle

 RECYCLE


Prompt - Recycle : Take something you've written in the past and rewrite it into a completely different piece.


An old story,"The Visitor", revisited as a poem.

(Original here)


Henry sits splendidly amidst librarial confusion

Leo’s doomed heroine in hand

Will he or Anna be first to reach the end?

Does the man in the suit have it planned?

They share a dram in the firelit flickers of companionship

They will share the dimming of life’s light

When the train casts that fragile body to oblivion

And the scythe flashes in the night

When you can anticipate his arrival and face the day

Be ready with open greeting

There is no fear in the visitors powers

He is the last one you’ll be meeting
