a chrysalis waits
on a separate page
rusty keys tap errata
uncommon strokes
rewriting the old bones
hints from fools' gold
fall upon a novel quill
rites of charcoal gray
spinning leaves of truth
spell out the seller's word
detached headings
rise over sundry tales
provide a crafty outline
for the living even as
she plans the grand finale

I liked the poem because it is a great way to look at life and how it does change.

Woe Sue, you really did something special here. LOVED IT!
You are a very talented lady! :D
So rich and vivid...beautifully done, as always!
I bet you pack a fine suitcase, T! The seams of this good idea are popping with stunning word choices that are themselves bursting with meaning. A writer’s life, writing her own life, is what I came away all happy with. Any way one could take it, it’s exceptional!
