knot for you
My second entry to the nonet challenge
. gathering up the threads of my life
. . knitting myself back together
. . . patching the wound in my heart
. . . . this poem, like me, is
. . . . . knot for you, who is
. . . . . . undeserving
. . . . . . . of my pain
. . . . . . . . or tears
. . . . . . . . . go!

Thou Shalt Not Set Fire to a Nunnery
"You're going to have to help me move the body." Julie stood in the doorway to my room, which was a cell really, and she was as close to breathless as I'd ever seen her. She looked dashing in the moonlight, and lit up with the glow of adventure.

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."

Another good Nonet… they are fun… a pity the challenge was breakup… not my forte🥺.
If he doesn't go, make him go. To hell. Just kill him
Oh wow, I absolutely love this one, especially the way you formed the lines. Well done!
Love the word play in this one and the formatting was super enticing too!! (If you wanted the dots gone and you work on a comp try the command button and space bar at the same time. It gives you invisible characters)
love the word play and once again you manage to present such a strong visual with each line.
Tie him in knots and throw him in a river.

a/n:- Thank you for reading! I am enjoying a bit of a stringy theme with these! Here is my other entry: https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/broken-fgo0jpl%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E These stand on their own, but also tie in (don't!) to this other one, "String Theory", which is the first poem I posted on Vocal. Enjoy! https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/string-theory-wg1zh502h9%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">
Get him telt. As they say up this side of the border. Another beauiful, achey, angry, justifiably so, entry! Well done, LC!
Oh, that was quick! Loved it, LC!
Beautiful
