Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Everyone Likes Flowers Right

Everybody likes flowers right,
Except children who were violated in bedrooms with flowered wallpaper.
Oh.
 
Everyone loves faeries right?
Except a sensitive young twelve-year-old boy who was called one.
Right.
 
Everyone likes to nap, right?
Have you ever met a two-year old?
 
Everyone is the craziest word ever.
It should be eliminated.
 
Unless you are speaking of air, water, and food.

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart October 31, 2018 at 8:13 AM Sharp ink! Well writ my friend. xomo Caren Krutsinger October 31, 2018 at 9:21 AM Thank you Maureen. I appreciate it.

Rhona Mcferran October 31, 2018 at 8:10 AM Point powerfully made! Excellent write, my friend! ;) Caren Krutsinger October 31, 2018 at 9:21 AM Thank you. I sometimes have a point, and sometimes just play. This week my lessons are all about not generalizing people, and not saying "all girls should" or "all boys should", that kind of nonsense.
