stupid words

sometimes
it is all just shite
and there's nothing
to be done but write
every stupid word you think

t'hell with poetry prose
give them a bop on the nose
and run away run away
run away 'til you fall
off the cliff of egocide

and sometimes
what you write is still
nothing but shite
and a bruised ego
is all that's left for show...

      I’m gathering we’ve a shared experience here?

        Indeed – usually if I look back at anything I’ve written, and especially if I can remember my initial intentions!

          🤣 Don’t be so hard on yourself.

            It’s a state of mind to be completely honest. One day I’ll stumble across something which I think is actually quite good, and another day I’ll read only drivel!

            I know what you mean and sympathize.

      We’re all given to stupid words at times, I think. Not all of us are foolish enough to share them. Ahem. 🙄

        Haha. I like that you throw it all out there. Braver then me.

          I don’t think that word means what you think it means. “Dumber than you” is more fitting.

            Haha. I think we’ll have to agree to disagree.

            I can be more just plain stupid than brave. Thanks for the smile 🙂
