poetry monday

this week is about expressing emotions - something that fierce doesn't like to let loose with.... 
his first attempt - trying to avoid it - turned out to express a deep emotion after all :)

                               i don't know

                    i don't know what to write about
                    i feel like my thoughts
                    are in a whirlpool of dead
                    imagination
                    and my ideas
                    are just out of reach
                    maybe i'm just no good
                    at writing poems
                    i don't know

angry is a beast awoken from slumber
irritated mosquito bitten camper,
a furious cat who has scarcely been fed,
a child not invited to his best friend's party,
a lie

                    the day is done
                    and black
                    sweeps
                    across the country
                    battling light
                    to the edges
                    of the earth
                    consuming the sky
                    in a few
                    small bites
                    black

     jealousy
look at her
so smug, so proud
oh well
she's fat / she's old / she's loud
my heart is empty
this hollowed pain
echoes

why did you choose her
why not me?
