The design
of the twine
led us
to your crime
The footprint
there below
showed us
where to go
Your fingerprint
on the door
the blood spatter
your hair
and more
The tooth marks
on her thigh
will direct us
to our guy
A hair that fell
out of your head
the semen
and sweat
on the bed
We can tell
you were there
by the print
of your ear
As you tried to hear
so much more,
lent against
the stained glass door

I frigging love this❣️ I don’t know why we insist on only using “lovely” and “lavish” language in poetry. Poetry should reflect life, an observation you and only you are equipped to make. So if I didn’t already say it: I love it!

🤗thank you so much! I know, I just write what I feel or think. The words are what they need to be. Celebrate life, yes! And we’re almost in 2022 – who talks like that anymore!? I want to appeal to today’s people and their lives, which is like mine, anyway 😁 I couldn’t agree with you more!🙌🌻💚

I’m so grateful for the exorcism it inspired in me❣️ So, thank YOU!! It was good to jettison a little piece of sequestered shame.

I should’ve written “fall far from my fickle favor” and I would’ve gotten 5 “f”s in there!! Alliteration is my personal passion.

Hmmm…. That is a very good question 🤔 I think it’s just my weird brain. There’s 2 sides, the dark – which is partly my wild imagination and partly my world experience /view. The other, poetic side is very sensitive and again partly world view etc and I think a strong sense of empathy, perhaps… 😊 What inspires you?

As I grow older it’s the stories and experiences of the people I meet as my life experience is limited, in English exams in the past I’ve always opted to write as someone else
