Challenge
Ok, although I know most of us can be very critical of ourselves, I think we all have a favorite or favorites of our own work. Maybe we posted one that didn't get very much feedback. That is what this challenge is about! That one that slipped by! There may be more than one, but just pick the best and post it here. If you feel like it got neglected or you're just very proud! Post the best poem you feel you ever wrote on Prose! Don't forget, tag me
The Pig Picture
in an age of connections,
we couldn’t be more disconnected
from each other and the pig picture-
pig was a typo
but appropriate
so I let it go
-that’s right, pig picture,
as in the big picture
of forgotten literature,
cookie-cutter marketing
of our once-respected Art culture,
within our self-segregated
profile inducing human-horticulture;
vultures of consumerism
caught up in a maze
of conditioned monetarism,
war in continuum,
personal Vietnam's,
training the masses,
by way of experiences,
to look out for #1;
ourselves,
before anything else…
because no one else will…
don’t be so disconnected
you fail to see important connections
that effect your lives as you live them.
-M.E.
