Poem - Forger’s Lament

The poem “Forger’s Lament” was written against the prompt, “Small and Beautiful”.


Forger’s Lament

In the space of small
mere inches wide
lay beauty’s face
in portrait’s frame

with likeness true
copy imbued
with love’s imprint
last image’s grief

diminutive
the final likeness
not my love
forger’s lament
