History

By onemorething on Mon, 17 Feb 2020

Rewrite of something I was happy with then suddenly very unhappy with. I think now this means I'm just confused.

Worm Rose

By onemorething on Sat, 08 Feb 2020

I wrote a poem called Shallow Graves once. I have reused the title as I have lost the poem. I don't think it was very cheery. In Sweden, dandelions are called worm roses.

You're right, now I'm

Posted on Wed, 19 Feb 2020

You're right, now I'm imagining Boris trying to explain Pluto and Charon to Trump through role play:

Posted on Mon, 17 Feb 2020

I'd like to say I'd had none, being a lady, just a vivid imagination, so that's all I will say. :) In a way, mudskippers are so charming that it seems insulting to have cast them in a poem about one night stands, but they're not very romantic,...

Yes, this is great. Books are insulation and love the other things you have woven in: conversations as prayers for example, and the equality of a library. Lovely. :)

Blimey. As insert said above: shoulder pads and Dallas theme tune needed to play this one out. Still enjoying this increasingly torrid tale. Rachel x
