The results of yesterday’s writing were largely unsatisfying. I wrote five poems, each one shorter than the last, and wasn’t terribly sure about any of them. So, I let them sit overnight. Revisiting them this morning, I am still largely unsatisfied with the results. The one I am posting is at least the most honest of the bunch…
Give me one more
I’m not numb yet
I can still feel what’s not there
I won’t relax
until there’s no hurt
and I’m no longer scared

The preamble was not needed –
Give us your words
Unapologetically
We will eat them
All the more eagerly
One of those habits I have yet to completely break…
I liked the preamble. The more I can learn about an authors personal perspective, life, feelings etc the more I seem to appreciate it and am more eager for it.
I agree. But I probably could have done without the disclaimer…
For the other reader/commenter, yes 🙂
