S tre e t R o o ts • A u g . 2 1 -2 7 , 2 0 1 5 Poetry Page 14 A Room Of Our Own by Eileen V. A room of our own is what I desire for Molly and me. Where we may find our solace once again, and be free. Haiku Free of hatred, free of people, free of prejudices, free of incompleteness. A room of our own where we can grow, develop, and reunite as one. A place to hang pictures, and to have our belongings around us again. A Light Beyond by Maddy Brown-Clark by Ross Robbins Summer Moons; A guitar player’s music Ascends to the sky. A room of our own where we can just be. In Japan the color of mourning is white. The blinding flash of strangled brain Festooned above the funeral rout, All the crepe-stream blank of pigment, Blank the mind once dying’s done. Maybe find a bit of hope there, thought Of light beyond alive, not The blackness promised by A firm belief in nothing Downtown; Too many people Going nowhere. The cattails; At the edge of the pond Standing regally. CareOregorv goMobile team OHP Navigation Clinics in Downtown Portland CareOregon and our partners make Oregon Health Plan navigation easy!
