Challenge
Sincerest form of flattery
Write a poem in the style of your favorite poet. Anything goes, just put your heart into it. This doesn't have to be your best life's work, just become what you adore for a moment.
This Side of My Skin {Inspired by Robert Frost}
This side of my skin only layers
It shows the story of my kin
A story that can't be shown by numbers on paper
It shows my family history, in virtue and in sin
This side of my skin is gold
Youthful and hard to hold
First soft like grains turned to flour
Then calloused in an hour
But even as my skin frays
This story on the side of my skin will stay
