a weakness in construction of ego

a weakness in construction of ego

 

the poem implodes

words scattered on the floor by the desk

instantaneous rewrite

is the rescue mission.

Love the metaphor I saw here with the doomed ill fated submarine
That’s how I read it
Good write

Dear J, this brief poem speaks to me about the frustration the poet has with his own work. Not prepared to salvage anything, it is confined to history. A new poem begins.

thank you for your insightful words, Chris,

[Gee]

How many pieces that we write are we truly happy with, few if any I'd say.
Guess that's why my pen sits idle for long periods:))
What say you sir?

[jacob erin-cilberto]

I say I seldom like anything I write...if others do, that makes me happy. But I usually don't.
thanks, Gee.
