A self-proclaimed
literary junky,
you’ve memorized
the back
of the shampoo bottle
just
because

there’s nothing
                        else

to Read in the shower.

Enjoyed the read, you must relax some time and read the back of the conditioner bottle ( What you think )?
Keep reading and enjoying it.

Sincerely
Rick

I actually like this, it's put together well.  But I wonder why you removed only else in a more freestyle format.  It's not a big deal, but it does stick out a little bit.  But I guess that is a matter of a poet's preference.  Nice job.

P.S. I much prefer my Shaving gel can, it's much more interesting.

If all you want is emotion, go down to walmart, buy yourself a diary and hide it in a drawer where no one can see...

Oooo Jen, you never cease to amaze me. It's so simple yet creates such an amazing effect. I always did adore your work. I'll email you in a little while to see how you're going.

I'm such a loser. I only dance in the shower.

I really like the way you describe things in interesting and creative ways. It always makes poems 10 times more enjoyable (or tolerable even) when a poet tries to "juice it up" a bit.
