Not going to lie, I have very much combined a writing task from the Creative Writing side of my degree with this week’s post, but I’m hoping that you’ll enjoy it! The heart of the task was creating images, assigning purposeful adjectives to them and layering sound on top. Feel free to let me know your thoughts! But anyway, here’s the poem.
It’ll Be Better In The Morning
Call to me, misty red,
with nocturnal song
duetting with buzzing skin.
Tell me the truth
of ripped skin
and small, exposed wounds.
Assure the starved eyes
that beyond the cruel screen
a misshapen moon awaits.
