Hey World,
I know, I know this is not the expected AMAZING poetic addition to this blog but since I'm staying true to my challenge and posting once a month at least. Whelp, if I must then here goes nothing.
Time Travels
Unhand me you brute!
For I do not wish to follow
along the road I've seen before
or down a path once well trodden
Release me,
from your steely grip
for I cannot bear the stench
of my old habit dying hard
due to my negligent intent.
So relinquish me, dear reflection
because I do not want to go
or to see the distance between then and now
without fair works to show.
Embarrassment clouds my vision
as my inabilities lodge in my throat
Suffocating the inner me
enemy
the bane of my soul.
Anyway moving on from my painful attempt and speaking of traveling....I will be very soon!! Visiting my best friend, C.K. in NYC. I can not seem to manage the excitement festering in my soul. It will be an agonising 9 months since I've last seen him. I will probably end up hugging his guts out and smothering him with my bosoms before he can even say hello.
I hope to update again soon before my "deadline". lol
Song of the month:
Other songs:
Gorgon City- Imagination ft Katy Menditta
Peter Gabriel- The Book of Love
Alison Krauss + Yo Yo Ma - Slumber My Darling
Ed Sheeran- The Parting Glass


Good job. Your third stanza is my favourite. The fact that you want to be let go but you still show your connection by using dear as a term of endearment. I like the rhythm especially. Happy travels, I wish I was going to New York :-(
ReplyDeleteAnd your goal isn't specifically poems woman, just getting your ideas out lol
