Alone
by Brian Matthew Kessler
I'm trapped alone,
In a body made mostly of carbon -- stone.
I begin to moan:
It is time to leave this wretched zone,
And to go back to my own.
Ice cream without a cone,
In debt with extented loan,
Ripped clothing left unsown,
Images yet unshown,
Contrasting colors without tone,
Let it now be known,
I ache within my "bone",
Waiting for the phone,
As I loudly groan:
I remain alone.
