if it doesn’t come bursting out of you in spite of everything, don’t do it. unless it comes unasked out of your heart and your mind and your mouth and your gut, don’t do it. if you have to sit for hours staring at your computer screen or hunched over your typewriter searching for words,

In search of inspiration--
Today I sat in a place that normally inspires me to write. Nothing came out. Nothing has come out for quite awhile.
Finding love—-after you’ve spent the last few years writing about nothing but your hate & resentment—-sort of ignites a spell of writer’s block—-at least in me.
expressing hate is so easy
I could write about love, but I wont. Im selfish with this...

Memoirs Of A Walking Woman: Ambitious Girl →
memoirsofawalkingwoman:
In this world it’s the survival of the fittest
So how can I not be ambitious?
When the cost of a dream is the sacrifices made to live it
Humble beginnings turn to hungry decisions when you can’t seem to elevate from your position
I guess I’m an ambitious girl
Feeling like I want more than…

April is National Poetry Month 14 of 30
soulburnslow:
I think I know
I am familiar with this flavor
It’s scent self fulfilling
I have been giving myself
over to the idea
too many times
to not remember
to forget
I have been dreaming this scene
a denouement
fitting of the occasion
forseeing the demise
of such wayward desire
I think I know
How this ends
in the same vein as most days
with sunset and prayer
and reverence...

Watching You Hold Your Hatred
Watching you
Hold
Your
Hatred
for such a long time
I wonder:
Isn’t it slippery?
Might you
not
Someday
drop it
on
yourself?
I wonder:
Where does it sleep
if ever?
And where
Do
You deposit
it
While you
feed
your
Children
Or
Sit
in the
lap
of
the one
who
cherishes
you?
There is no
graceful
way
to
carry
hatred.
While
hidden
it is
everywhere.
