Vacancy

Nov 16, 2009 Creative Writing/Poetry

The neon flickers.

“No”
next to
“Vacancy”

First it blinks.
Rapidly as if fighting to stay lit.
Then a tremble.
Afraid of the imminent dark.
Last, it quivers.
With a zap and sizzle.

Vacancy. Luminous. Abandoned. Tenacious. Broken.

Vacancy in
my bed
my head
what wasn’t said.

Shattered glass on the concrete below.
