Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Lead and wood
Fused for a purpose
Life changes
In blackened ovals
Shading, within the lines

Fear, struggle.
Am I right?
Waiting excruciating
Triumph!!!

Because you believed
Pushed and prodded
I tried and hoped
Reaching
A brighter star
Richer, fuller
Life, not surviving
Comfortable, smothered

Dreams delayed
My path found again
Under the bramble.
Years wasted
On a scripted path
Others’ choices
No longer mine
Free to start anew.

- About taking the LSAT at 41.
