It Waits Prose
I can never tell when it will show.
Teeth sharp as needles.
It could be today with a glance at the horribly familiar.
Always remembering and never forgetting.
It could be next week with a familiar wail.
Too close for comfort.
It could be next year at the anniversary of that evil time.
A clock keeps it on track.
It could be in a decade.
Somber and blurred.
It could be the day after never.
There are no promises.
