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.
the stones are poking
so painful today,
the box is broken
under my head.
I was laid down
and told to rest

but due to the chaos of my broken life
shards of stone and hatred
are poking painfully
under my head.
