Equinox Of A Brain Freeze: A Poem By Rodney Russ (Poetry Reading)

EQUINOX OF A BRAIN FREEZE

(c) Rodney Russ

Just thinking aloud to the beats
of a broken drum roll

I sit in silence
As the waves of self doubt

Take me on a journey
To a place where hell freezes over

I wish I could transcend humanity
And be a flower fused in gold bronze

I lived on a street in Mars
Where The Sun was my neighbor

It rained once a year
And all the beer was tainted.
