I am stuck..not happy with anything I'm writing lately and very jealous of you all that can write and write and write. Sigh. I'm sorry.

I need some challenge phrases please.

Or email me a 'profile' of a PiP member and I'll write a poem for them from 'their secret admirer'...

or if you have any unusual anecdotes or newspaper stories..

or maybe just a swift kick in the poetic behind?

thanks!

She weeps as she walks alone
moonlight like mist drizzling down
brings memories of ash and shadow
like the mud stains on her gown

whispers of screams linger here
the souls who never got free
but felt the sting of fire’s kiss
as Angels sang their eulogy

Four hundred souls died this night
Locked in the bowels of Satan’s boat
Children died in mother’s arms
last cries issued from their throat

her shoes are gone, lost to the sea
as her heart slowly breaks in two
her lover lay in Neptune’s bed
in the wreck of the Richelieu
