#29

It’s just television.
Bars and tone that pierce ear drums.
Dust settling on tape decks
and digis dropped on the floor.
Darling is my name, or hun, or babe.
I am reduced to one character,
a punching bag of frustration.
Always caught between the angry
and the angered.
Don’t ask me your questions.
Let me sit for five more minutes.
This soup is cold
and I haven’t had enough caffeine.
Everyday I don’t want to do this anymore
and everyday you remind me why.
Enough.
I'll go back tomorrow
and do it all again.

#30

you make me wonder
if music is all there is
or if rhythm is just
the introduction
to something better

Congrats on completing NaPo!! :) You have quite a variety of poems here. I find a lot of them to be quite thought provoking as well; particularly #28 & #30 in your recent work. These lines are excellent:
"It’s never easy to admit
the depth of inadequacy
that sits hollow inside,
everyday."

There's just such a raw authenticity to your poetry. Really lovely work! :)
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

Hooray, you finished! Congratulations! (I have 6 to go, eek!)

I love so many of these. I recognised the things in #8! And #17 made me laugh. And #10 made me sad :( and #22 made me sad in a different way :( And all of these are great, is what I'm saying :P

If I told you what it meant @niteowl I'd have to explain what @Demeter's meant :o

Well done for finishing!! I'm so glad you decided to do NaPo and I really do wonder why you always insisted you couldn't do poetry because clearly you can xD hopefully it doesn't stop here!
