Ars Poetica Returns

Poetry
I don’t know if you remember, but in April I was posting daily from a poetry volume about poetry. I am going to be returning to that as one of the PAD challenges. I will be Posting it directly to the blog. Here’s today’s poem.

How strange it feels
to pick up the pen,
with the intent to write.
As if I could peel away my skin
and let poetry see the light.

Exposure of the soul
in a way that few would
understand,
leaving my pen sitting limp
suddenly in my once so eager hands.

I feel like it should not stop me
the idea that I might be misunderstood,
instead I will let flower the words
and see if I can find the art within.

Announced changes

I am going to be doing two separate Poem a Day challenges and I am going to be doing the Fae 50k. I am going to be going for a daily habit more than the word count. The fun thing is that you don’t have to do 50k to win the Fae 50k you merely have to write daily. I am going to be trying to get as much word count as I can each day.

I Think I am going to just leave my Monday as a single poetry post for the remainder of October and figure out what I want to replace Publishing Demystified with in December.
