Hard Knocks
A thud is heard
The sound of life
Meeting earth face-down
Biting dust
Shaking up with new resolves
With the wind in its sail
The sound of life
Meeting earth face-down
Biting dust
Shaking up with new resolves
With the wind in its sail

My friend!
On the economies of scale, this new piece cuts to the chase.
Not one word is wasted.
The image of new life coming into reality as a vexed awakening is real for many, with its thud, face--down, and biting-dust metaphors.
The redemptive part is the shaking off of the dust in the new resolve with a tailwind to a better existence.
That is a hard-knock life. Well done!
Sincerely

I appreciate concise and direct poetry like this
Short and straight
It cuts like a knife
Goes straight for the bull's eye
Never missing it's mark
