Apple Picking Day

Your throat cradled
the demons that plauged
saturday morning cartoons
where insecurities
hatched imaginary friends
and suicide notes
hung from apple tree,

where childhood
dreams lay rotting
between flesh and core,
as life became earth

    I really enjoyed this poem. The title fits in pretty well and your descriptions are amazing. Very blunt and fun to say the least but I loved it. You've got a nice head on your shoulders yes. AMAZING WRITE

    *shudder* That was creepily, terrifyingly amazing! It may be only 35 words...but it's like a fully crafted story.

    Good luck in the contest!
