I Cold Say No

Poem... And a Thank You to Vocal Media.

By K.A. SmithPublished 12 months ago Updated 12 months ago 1 min read

I would like to say "Thank you, thank you!" to Vocal Media for awarding me as a Leaderboard Emerging Creator. Thank you again. 🙂

Now, the poem!

I cold say no
Like a clock.
Been there
Done that,
A clock... or a person.
Oh, so I find
Tick tick ticks.
Hot, then cold,
A thin line.
Mine your business
Lizard... "Gieco" Gecko...
Cold.
And wonder why it
Pops up in movies
As cameos... in gunfights.
"Godzilla!"
Mine your business,
Go ahead, go.
I cold say no.
