Cross it Out

Cross it Out

A Poem by oranges_melt
"

destroy

"

Erase it

Neglect it

just make sure

you burn it

please hide it

don't show it

destroy what I've

turned it.

Please Mmask it or

hate it

don't love it

or save it

it's meant to be

vaporized

cut open

I've realised.

Cross it out

filled with doubt

emptiness

it's not allowed.

Melt it down

don't make a sound

like lightening bolts

and thunders' pound

The letter's meant

to bring back hope

but all's it's done

was leave us dope.

Scribble off the words

I wrote and make sure

no one leaves a note

but if they do and if they say,

 just cross it out with no delay.

Very clever. Refreshing to see someone charting their own course in creative writing. This poem has great socially subversive overtones to it, but I think the strength of this poem is in the visuals. NICE!
