i don’t want to write
I have to write
My writing is a woman singing an annoying song in my head over and over and over again
Until I spill out the song into my fingers
And bleed it down for you to see

Where is my mind
why does this thing that bounced back from me to you, a reverberating, echolocation of a single thread Twanging from beat to beat as a single swing from a sword, a very powerful drum that deepens the whole world in a mournful beat of breathing pounding

Well-wrought! I laughed at this in the best way for all the right reasons. It might also have been entitled "The Pestering Muse".
Oh my. I just love this. Well said
Like you said, Melissa!! You aren't wrong! 💌🌟
Omggg, this was soooo relatable! Hehehehe loved it!
😁 I'm Henery the 8th I am, I am... I'm Henery the 8th I am... I got married to the widow next door .... .... I get it. When working on a novel my brain is in overdrive and I can't sleep. Been there. 😉
Very graphic poetry for sure !
I love this🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
yeah, the thoughts exploding in brain sometimes feel that way! Isn't it great that you let those thoughts bleed on paper? Or maybe screen, hehe 😄🤝 Great Job, dear.
