Irony long relinquished its hold
on me
this dark drive
failing light shadows moving
as the horizon continues to shift
Always always16 kms away
but refusing a separated vision
for me
sinking disasters in the shape
of hearts
& the unfitting of the world
begins
carries on
the skin releasing its hold on
the story

J.D. Harms 2020

Prompt:

Write a poem, or any other kind of writing, using the word misfit; it doesn’t have to contain exactly that word: your piece might use the concepts or attributes of the word. Tag me in it (J.D. Harms). You can either send it to this publication or make it a stand-alone piece. If you would not like to send it to us, make sure to leave a comment below with a link to the story.
