I will scribe some scribblings now and then
Like loose futile flailings from my pen
Should I slip jag tearing them, dear friend
Please then thread your quill and make 'em mend

word
slips tongue
feeling
chokes inside
shaking gut
life is unfair
truth is bitter
heart knows betrayal
world appears tumbling
return I must
married you are
neatly framed
notes, scribblings,
photos
lined with
desk

Contest:Laura Loo's 'Backwards Poem'
After reading a well-known poem
I came away from it
carrying certain words,
planning to use them
inside my own scribblings.
When I tried that,
my half-completed muse
began to scratch itself
like a dog with tics.
They were really good words,
but they were sounds -
just pretty sounds.
In the end I shook my shaggy head
and wrote only plain words instead.
Ugly bugs,
but they won’t itch later on.
I do not, amongst the dregs of my cups,
Consider you worthy to be the theme
For my untutored scribblings.
There, Madame, there: I put you
In your place, amongst the detritus
Of my life, the forgotten effigies of life,
As she should be lived.
Yet, you do not acquiesce to my intentions,
And re-emerge into my consciousness
To disturb and argue for attention and
Writings.
I am weak, and accede to your importuning
With versification to placate your demands,
To show my love.
