Soul Searching

Find a friend
in need...
hers and mine
I'm mumbling

Days in a daze
I'm losing my grip
I'm fumbling

Not's and knots
tie up my guts
there's rumblings

Free falling
on the edge
worrying...
hers and mine
We're tumbling

    This is very inventive. Between the form of the rhymes and the word interaction you did an exceptional job. Better yet you wove the fabric of the form together and it made sense and brought different feelings to different readers. Good luck in the contest. RC

    I like the wordplay with the,...what's the term, oh yeah, homophones (sound the same spelled differently). Very cool.

    Cool

    Well I'd say you did an excellent job with the prompt. I found your poem quite amusing, actually had fun with it. My favorite part has to be "Not's and Knots tie up my gut they're rumbling" Well done and good luck in the contest.
