Slip

This venomous night  
                                I' m stung.


                                resolutions
                                promises
                                and oaths
                                hide behind the


                                groan
                                growl
                                and gasp
                                perch on the hard shell of


                                with
                                each 
                                        s
                                          l
                                            i
                                              p

                                I  BLOAT
                                I bloat without a nucleus

There is something that I really like about this poem. I like the way its written and the sounds of consonants throughout. Makes me think, great job!
