Challenge
Create a poem with the purpose of evoking a strong emotion. The catch is you can't use any pronouns or any feeling words.
home alone
The calluses on your palms catch the skin just beneath my ribs
You’re sweating and my neck is cold from the dampness of your breath
‘Do you ever think about me?’
I turn my head into the pillow
The fan is on
I want the duvet but I don’t want to ask for it
‘Sometimes.’
‘What do you think about?’
‘I don’t know.’
