Challenge of the Week CXXXVII
Shame, shame, shame. Shame may be the glue that holds society together; or it may be the bane of authenticity and happiness. Maybe it's both. Write about shame. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
A Work of Art
unctuous guilt sticks to my skin
embarrassment clings to the pain within
belief that I have no worth
the fecund soil of a desperate earth
the velvet death of "not enough"
the broken bits of forgotten stuff
this tortured soul, a work of art
desperate to take my shame apart
