NAPOWRIMO CONTEST // 17th APRIL 2013 // A REGARDLESS MIND

And now our (totally optional) prompt! Early on in the month, I asked you to write a valediction — a poem of farewell. Today, let’s try the opposite, and write poems of greeting. There’s lots of things you could greet. The spring? Your new stapler? A favorite classmate? An addition to the menu at your local cafe? The subject’s up to you — now get out there and say “hello!”

 

 

white nights

stolen images

the power of luxury

the luxury of power

homeless faith

fire in my veins

mascara down my eyes

invisible bruises

broken words

broken world

killing days

another mistake

chased by the man in grey

a shame for what went wrong

 

to your colors i’m blind

it’s my freedom that i signed

a thank

a regardless mind
