I'm a little too 'Wordless'

Found bound gagged and penless,
No paper still, nor tripping tune,
Or sign of some poetry soon.

Deft tricksters these letters,
Prove my disgrace, sentencing spies,
Mocking words peck at my eyes.

Bruised bleeding and plotless,
Word's broken will, stymied and small,
Left numbed without feeling at all.

Beaten senseless in fetters,
Bewildered face, counting the cost,
Mouthing the words that I’ve lost.

Although I may be a little wordless I actually believe participation in this scheme would benefit the CA forum by attracting more members and acting as a focal point for anyone wanting to take part – a place where they can polish and refine their poems before they enter them.

In turn participation in CA can only benefit the poets who take part – giving them useful pointers and advice on how they can improve their entries.

I understand that the Senior Mods declined an offer to take part at some time in the past but is it not possible to take another look at this scheme with a view to PIP members taking part?
