Rear View Relationships: A Poem In 160 Characters


Rear View Relationships

objects in the mirror
are closer than they appear,
the words taunt me
as you walk away.

tears spill from my eyes
as i pull into traffic,
laughing at the irony.

By Brian Miller


Say it in 160 characters, then tell Monkeyman
