Who are you?
Poetry Contest Description
An exercise in brevity!
I really, really enjoyed finding out what makes some of you tick, what inspires you, and where your hope comes from. Now's your chance to tell us something about yourself... in 30 words or fewer.
~ New writes only, this time.
~ No erotica
~ Observe the word limit
~ Illustrate it if you like
~ Two weeks
Good luck!

Peace of mind
I am an old fart
Ready from this world to depart
Hopefully peace to find
For of nightmares I've had enough
Total oblivion is a dear wish of mine.

Crazy Cat Lady
I have five cats, yet
no one ever bats an eyelash
when someone
has five dogs,
or fifty chickens,
or twenty fish,
or two hundred cows.
Wondering why, that is?

Me In 30
habitual dropper of slippery soap
bobbing for semblance of hope
means to cope is creative wordplay
ropes strangling desire to stay & play
by my own hand won't be the way

Hello Me
A son, a brother, a father, a lover,
an uncle, a friend, a novice with pen
sinner whose forgiven, Jesus my king
worshiping with poetry, cause I can not sing

Ever hoping to do better
unfinished manuscript
competition of the next page
mixing with all the other fonts
youths mind, that age is nought but fun
bucket list that leaks
