I was going to edit that poem. ... Then I didn't.
Talore: heh.
Sentiment, the link for my poem doesn't work. [I would edit it in myself, but you know ... use and abuse of power and whatnot.]
I liked the clever ones this week. Talore ... tempting, but I think you lose out to Blippy this go-round.

Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
my mouth is full of winsome lies -
and eyes are full of death besides
but luckily the soul is wise -
it sees beyond my blindness and
forced failure makes a better guise,
so as i come again alive,
it feels like life's a decent plan
I also liked Placeholder. I'm a procrastinator, and it amused me that the entry was in the form of a post about a forthcoming entry. Very ironic, and a great spot for self-reflection, in my case.
Gary, Indiana felt superfluous, and the only stanza that carried much weight was the last, Blippy's was going somewhere, then forgot where, and Amputation just didn't feel.
Here are this week's poems:
Slant by Sam111111
Gary, Indiana by Ilmarinen

I accidentally hit the space bar in the middle of your poem's URL for some reason.
