How to write a poem #6

sit, stare, or move, up to you.  Get that first line down right away, and don't lose it.

You could start one sharp line, short, then build your next lines.

I used to go short, then long, distress signal, but even all short, or, all long are good.

Trust yourself.  Best to not know anything, not even really try, just open.

You could make a tidy poem by coming back and fitting the premise you established into the end.

Determine your language to be uncommon to daily speech, and fitting to poetry.

Don't use heavy, big words, but use it like practical math.

Good luck.  Do it!

I'm more rational today

 just a combination of many things, social media, no free speech, after all the time I've spent, Phil's diagnosis, my fight for justice inching on 30 years of fighting, and seeing no light at the end of tunnel, thinking I'm doing it all myself, and can't get a simple reply of encouragement. plus I do everything to access, and getting burnt out so often, they made fun of me about that too, when so many people are like me.  you think you got me figured out, think again! I've decided to stay on my blog, and keep Messenger, and the internet, but no social media posts anymore, but I haven't deleted any account.
