A Soul Awakened

Back then 
No den

Right here
sound clear

Back then
No pen

Right here
Great share

Back then
Not ten

Right here
I rear

Dear zone
I own

This soul
Make roll

Rise soul
My soul.

I really liked how you used a series of footles and then ended it with "rise soul/my soul"-- a very inspiring read! Thank you for passing by my poem :)!

I've never tried writing a footle, but I've read some pretty amazing ones on the Soup. This one is interesting, and it's strange how choppy, yet flowing it is. Back then, no pen, right here, great share << I get what you're saying there. When I first started writing it took me several months to finally start sharing my work with anyone... but it's an incredible feeling to share and let your voice be heard.
