Mess

Mess

 

My poetry at times it does

Get me in such a mess

The grammar's bad the spelling wrong

A mess I must address

 

But this is not the mess I mean

This hits me from the rear

My verse it gains a sudden soul

And in my eye, a tear

 

It seems that I can have two messes

One in poetic script

The other on a deeper plane

Emotions getting ripped

I agree with the others. Pure emotion shows in this and it makes it very touching. I think a lot of people could find themselves in it.

Jane - 'frosted with', I like that. Bipolars are very emotional. It often comes out in my writing. Guess it's a way of healing ?

Indeed Don this piece mirrors quite a bit of emotion compared to other poems I've read by you. I really enjoyed this one. Excellent rhyme as always frosted with a little bit of the inner you! ?Jane

Don't digress, confess
Bring it all into the open
Your mess will get less

I look at this and think did I really write this? It's still ripping emotions reading it 12 months later ?
