#TLT – Oct 12 Use the hashtags and share on social! #comelaydownink
Use your imagination. Poetry, Haiku, Senryū, Free Verse, Prose, Flash all are welcome. (Please no graphic use of excessive profanity or overtly disturbing mental images. Let’s use common sense.)
One word per line, fine. Ten words per line (max), fine. As long as it fits in the comment box in three-line format, it counts. Simple, right?
Read other entries and comment. This will be a positive forum for feedback!

When she had forgotten all
I had touched, I wrote her a poem,
something new to touch.
Doors dimpled with knotty pine or bullet holes
slump against a slatted fence. History erased,
no one knows what really happened.
all those experiences…relationships…all that anguish…and joy,
rotting into richness
and transformation

three hours of sleep in as many nights
rage and sorrow push against nerve endings
dreams taunt from behind a locked door
