Challenge
Poetic Licence to Kill
Recent entries and comments sparked me again to sabotage my own poetry. So the challenge is to part write something poetic, but at appropriate times destroy its rhythm or rhyme. I found this challenging (it probably shows ha ha!) but it's a really good mental exercise to deliberately take yourself out of the flow!
Mixed Emotions
I love your smile.
I love your style.
I go the mile.
Though you take me
for granted
sometimes,
asking for more than
you need.
Filling your heart up
with greed.
Don’t let it take over
your mind!
I think you’re cool.
I think you rule.
Although it’s cruel
when you
let anger
and rage
destroy our
forever friendship
Yelling with
quivering lip.
Fury belongs
in a cage!
I love you so.
I want you to know.
I want it to show.
So listen up
now!
Listen to ME.
Don’t let it
take over your
personality!
Be yourself!
I SAID
BE
YOURSELF
AND
SNAP
OUT
OF
IT!
I like who you are.
I think you’re a star.
You’re going to go far.
Just breathe.
