Three he thought in theory was a mighty fine number
Silver needles
buried in soft flesh
on Mondays
the dearly depart
we put on our best
yet we're still under dressed
rolling rainstorms
wash away the time that we were here
when hearts hold us back
there no one left to steer
buried in soft flesh
on Mondays
the dearly depart
we put on our best
yet we're still under dressed
rolling rainstorms
wash away the time that we were here
when hearts hold us back
there no one left to steer

Amazing piece, the more vague, the more I actually love your stuff. It's probably such a different reading experience from person to person.
Please come back at certain points. I began working part time (with the kids and all already, I work nearly all day) and I often feel like I can't dedicate any time to log on here. Many times I need to miss submissions because I can't read and comment on them all. So I admittedly cherry pick, and try not to favor some friends over others. As long as it doesn't mean going back a week or more in the feed...
You told me not to worry about it, and to skip your stuff if it meant having a piece of time to write and upload. So, I'll parrot that excellent advice back :)
Some people can contribute hours here, and that's great. But for a lot of us, it can almost morph into a burden because the urge to be supportive is strong, but there's simply no time for everyone. And that's totally ok, there shouldn't bee pressure to get stuff up, or comment. Just do what you can!

But I should add (and maybe this is different depending on the poet, idk) that sometimes the lack of time makes it even harder to take advantage of time, and the limits on your creativity make it more difficult to create.
It's like sleeping; if you know you need to wake up for work in 6 hours, it's much harder to fall asleep. But, if you are looking forward to sleeping in the next day and have nothing to do, it's bliss to drift off to sleep unburdened. Being busy doesn't exactly create the best mindset, so be patient with yourself regarding that (I understand).
