the roar of chainsaws
so prevalent in day
echo through hot sleepless nights
as the wind weary
attempt to destroy destruction
and rebuild with shrapnel

Mom, This is intense and mysterious just like the storm I like it.
The chainsaw vibe and sound adds a great depth of perception.
Good work! Love and miss you & glad as is well. Talk to you soon love & light! Shell

This reads like a moment in the news. Nicely done.

I'm not sure how to comment on this. I fail to see the purpose or the statement that was made with a purpose on this poem, except in my mind I could hear the chainsaws.

Today is not one of my days for a concise critique. Perhaps I'm just not too bright today.

This book represents a thirty-day period of my poetry journal. Each poem addresses the dominant thoughts occupying my mind during the early morning hours of a given day.

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
