DMC: "Echoes" by Angelique Pacheco





ECHOES

The drum beats
The sound repeats
Becomes incomplete
Before it retreats

    You've written that drum beat into the poem so well. Love the simple beat/echo!

    That would make a perfect reverso poem:
    Verse 2
    Before it retreats
    Becomes incomplete
    The sound repeats
    The drum beats
