The One Good One Poem

Completely he turned to the left,

to the right.

“Don’t stop moving the fingers”,

he said,

“The keys must click like horses hooves.”

Turn at last

toward the angry people you met and the one

good

one,

with the smile today,

when she didn’t have to,

when it wasn’t necessary,

when it

counted.

Thank you.

The one good one is the

one

The others are

to be

simply forgotten

…………the silver moon

demands it.

The silver moon

is sometimes golden

like that smile.
