Poem -

Falling like

days are
Not simple   Falling like

bricks on the back of a flea

crushing and blinding and
Squashing and Grinding

too many days falling
Only one flea
seconds spill minutes, Days

​​​spill blood from me

The metaphor of the flea is very effective. When I link this poem to some of the others I have read it draws me to the meaning of your words. Seconds spill minutes suggests the days sort of drag by. And "only one flea" is a significant line. Hugs x
