“I’m quite tired of beating myself up to write. I think I’ll start letting the words slip out like a tired child. “Can I have a piece of pie” he asks, and then he’s asleep back on the cusp of the moon.” ~ Jim Harrison from Songs of Unreason
Welcome my poetic friends to our 19th day in our Unreasonable challenge. Looking forward to the wonderful things you will write today. As always, everyone is welcome to join in. Write a poem inspired by this quote, post it, credit Harrison, link back in the comments, stop back by and read other poets. Love Y’all! ~Jilly
Aaaaaaargh!

Is that a primal scream, my friend? 🙂

It sure was! That was my first instinct. I’m calmer now and ready to roll!

Hahaha! Love this! Your scream was the first thing I heard (saw) this morning and it was priceless. I feel that way far too often. Glad you gave it voice 🙂

Oh, that’s an interesting one. It’s a poem in itself, not sure it needs anything from me.

I haven’t read others yet, but I don’t think I looked at this the same way. I found this a bit of fun and got silly after the last few digging at my heart poems. 🙂
