so, you flourish under his enchanting, poisonous words, yet are
ignorant of his looming gift, a picture-book of your terribly quiet grave?
lights flicker, dim. i scream for you to turn away, run away from
each scar he inks with Hell’s creativity – inside your stripped, sunken soul,
notes and pages of your former voice lost to that unwanted narrator.
cease this, i beg! slam the book shut – only he shall remain smothered,
eternally left to burn, inside the story he tried to finish for you!

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.

This is a deeply striking metaphor, communicated with such desperation and eloquence. Amazing work, and congrats on the Top Story! :)
A sense of foreboding and disbelief that she would tread the path everyone knows would end in shambles but too trapped by the sweet words to see the second option. Very twisty and captivating, I especially love the last line.
great entry
This was so poignant and filled with emotions! Loved your poem, good luck on the challenge!😊
The commentary made about someone who seems to have no voice. Exemplary of how one's entire life could be consumed by one person, and they feel trapped in their now tiny world, without even a word being uttered. It's incredible how you're able to capture such emotions, the feeling of being trapped and consumed, the constant pressure being felt by the narrator. Your writing style is enticing and captivating, keep going Adonide!
