Ah you are so good at these one liners that just smack reality of particular emotions or situations.

16 has gotta be in my list of favorite Mesh poems too. <3

Hi Mesh!

These short poems say so much in so little. It takes real skill to create that kind of impact and you’ve nailed it. Loved them all.

I won’t lie, I kept going back to your #6 - it hit differently, so relatable and quietly powerful.

But truly, each one is beautiful in its own way.
I only put my signature on big cheques.
