good till now

goodtillnow p84_opt.jpg

we lost
all of everyone
welted with scars
the clock quit
swallowed by a quiet Hell
only no work,
picture cleaned,
asleep

all words, including title, from page 84 of Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane. poem #77 of the First 100 Days series, and poem #6 for National Poetry Month.
