Give me poetry or give me death!
Write a poem. Or, alternatively, write a piece about death. And, if you're feeling really motivated, give me both! Remember to tag me, or I might not see it :)

I had a dream you died

saw it as clear as a summer day

i couldn’t cry

not even had i tried

you died

and no one remembered you

not even the mice

that have lived in your kitchen cabinets

these last four years

i heard somewhere in the country

someone had a party

somebody told the news

someone remembered a loved one

that had known you

or about you

nobody loved you

nobody cried.

Letter to nobody -{renata ferretti}
