Challenge
Ok, although I know most of us can be very critical of ourselves, I think we all have a favorite or favorites of our own work. Maybe we posted one that didn't get very much feedback. That is what this challenge is about! That one that slipped by! There may be more than one, but just pick the best and post it here. If you feel like it got neglected or you're just very proud! Post the best poem you feel you ever wrote on Prose! Don't forget, tag me
Electric
there’s neon blue underneath my fingernails and between my toes
and cloyingly sweet behind my teeth
i’ve got words rolling around my mouth
like marbles, darling
you want to hear a secret? pick one
they’re hanging in strings from around my wrists,
digging into my pulse point
like teeth,
my skin breaking like the crisp of an apple
trust me when i say i’m not going to stop you–
so by all means, go ahead
and take a bite
