Challenge
Insomniac Jots
A paltry spot to place one of those niggling tidbits which came un-asked-for in the dead of night. Fiction, non fiction, poetry, prose, self, contradiction... Anything goes.
“Myrtle”
wait
who's myrtle
why is this scribbled
on the scrap of paper
on my nightstand
that i keep for nightly
wonderings.
what code did i come up with
in the dead of night
praying that i'd be able to decipher it.
who is myrtle,
why is she here?
i put that piece of paper there so that
it'd be easier to remember
but i still
can't remember
what i meant
by myrtle.
