I know I haven't been active in the literary forums for quite a while so after this I am going to make some comments :) This is just a poem I wrote a minute ago about how I'm feeling right now.

I don’t think I can write
Right now
Without burning the paper.
Because I’m scared and bored and waiting
And I can’t seem to
Think
Without thinking of him
I’m burning and tired and wiped out
Restless and useless and
Fucking about
I have something I need to say
And until I say it
I’m speechless.

Because I’m scared and bored and waiting

I don't think you need the "because" there. Other than that the poem was pretty good. Keep on writing in the free world.

I'm definitely not a poet, but I liked it too. It felt frustrated.

The capitalization in front of every line bugged me, but that's your style. The poem itself was hurried, yet that sets the mood of the poem. I liked it.

Me like. Me like. The perfect frustration poem. Though I am rather curious about who "him" is.

It was pretty good.



I hope everyone's safe and sound and has some potatoes in the pantry.
