This is ice,
This is pain,
This is loneliness.

This brain is filled with:
appalling experiences,
unfair actions,
jarring memories.

Memories highlighting differences,
highlighting racism
highlighting injustices.

Thank you to Matthew Rohrer from #PoetryInVoice for this prompt!

The Vowel Poem”

What’s your favorite vowel? Mine’s E. Pick your favorite vowel, and write a ten line poem in which every word uses that vowel. It doesn’t have to begin with that vowel, or even use it prominently (i.e. get it’s main “sound” from the vowel). It just has to be in the word.
