Confession of a Poetic Wannabe

Everything around me
Turns into poetry--
But badly written.
My brain foams
Like it was bitten
By a rabid dog
Or like an angry mob
That doesn’t know what it’s ranting about.

Oh, you've such an intesting last name, Priva! Perhaps like a poetical Ali Baba? Okay, I'll stop being a nuisance.:( I think your 'wannabe' inclinations will justly serve you! There is creative and interesting metaphore and imagey happening here! Keep well! Mikki
