he’ll never know
I never healed
when he ran away
on his heels
lanes of the past
still call
driving me around
in late hours
peaceful slumber evades
on moonless nights
when I should have
just lain in my grave
Saturday Mix – Double Take at MLMM
The ‘Double Take’ challenge focuses on the use of homophones* to build your writing piece. You have two sets of homophones and you are challenged to use all of them in your response – which can be poetry or prose.
Our homophone sets this week are:
heal – to cure of disease
heel – hind part of foot
he’ll – contraction of “he will”
and
lain – past tense of lay
lane – narrow road
