goes to surrender
of opener by nature
a prematurely apertured
uterus has inappropriate feeling
of who's around to peel leap
I have no window to rewind
it by, colors aren't in a drink
but of a tongue for no kiss in going on with life
except here is not hurt unless with our hour
of mindless faces not guarding think tick
a mother's nest is not in hair
just trees of harshness
too sad
toss and turn awake
but plaid of blank look
is blanket...
not a tacky desire
if could be taken
mention zone
Author notes
JUDGE I goofed all around if looking for every question. other than answer with verses why I came on mostly. A little more than that & I almost went over 20, felt the 'if I couldn't help it' and will be okay with a delete rather than edit after I realized and like it this way.
short on content? IMO AP is backwards in attaching rules at top of add a poem page, because once done you submit... below -- you don't ergonomically get inclined to go above piece worked on so often forget the guidelines.
if need be, maybe reentry could be based on that ha-ha.
or suggestion box with pop up window for rules while writing, mimicking them somewhat; like commenting gets that choice to be with poem directly for basing around quote or understanding.
good luck is a paucity for a pause
emoticons and the applause can't substitute comment words at all,
though rose is lovely without logoish

excellently grateful --
Riftkin functional flow can be with you
thanks for deriving need for communication. my husband read this and said I sounded depressed.
I suppose I could go from a senryu around miscarriage
I can move hips
and energize arms
yet why won't my smile dance,
may open it to talk... and that wasn't work either.
I appreciate the prize for offering a troubled abstraction,
