Foolish Pride

__________________________________________


Foolish Pride

Shoot me with your letters
stab me with you words
crush my heart with your comments.

Steal my language
rape my ideas
burn my pages.

Extinguish my excitement
crush my embers of imagination
leave me in ruin among the ashes.

How I laugh
How I laugh

Lovely words, Sheri. As if anyone could stop you writing if you wanted to. So pleased it's no longer in BLOCK CAPITALS. Your words speak for themselves.....loudly.

What irony! I had to read your poem more than once, just to completely wrap my mind around it. Forceful in a so few words. The last line "How I laugh" repeated is a real topper. I can feel the intensity.

hmmm...Cheri darling, this is an "ouch" very sarcastic, full of irony and a lot of "fuck yous". The words of cool, i also like the ending, but hell it did not really end...so i feel no closure in this poem.
