there is a (w)hole where no memories reside and there i must go now
Kerry ask us to use the phrase ‘long ago rooms’ as our departure point for the Micro Poetry prompt at Toads, where I am hanging all month. This is day 11 of NaPoWriMo too and I am glad of the opportunity to use an American sentence this morning.
That’s a beauty!
Thanks Rosemary
Amen on that, brother. Funny how the rooms of these wounds are also nouns for wombs …
Indeed. Those 9 months are a past life all of their own.
So sad, but beautiful,, 🙂 it doesn’t always take a lot of words to touch a heart,,, 🙂
Redemptive rather than sad for me but I can see the sad too 😉 All unfolding. Thanks for reading.
So powerful — I love this.
Incredibly stunning!💞
I’d like to say I took my hat off as a salute when I read this, but the truth is that my hat flew off when my mind was blown.
Fabulous comment.
Got to love an American sentence, and this one rocks the form. I agree with Shawna.
You know it’s really a Haiku though right? 😉
Wonderful, Paul. So much suggested by whole/hole in this sentence.
to move ahead sometimes that is necessary – not everyone has such a w(hole).
packing a punch here Paul with that imperative
This is clever.
Incredible American sentence. Wounds, wombs, rooms….
This is so deep, Paul, and I can think about from different angles and find a new interpretation every time.
layered and leveled, but not necessarily in equilibrium – just perfectly worded. Cheers!
Wow…knock -out!
Full House, Aces High, Paul! So much in a single sentence! Wow!
