I remember way
BACK
when bitches stabbed my
BACK
when no one had my
BACK
I left, never looking
BACK
for every two steps forward, landed me five steps
BACK
I lost in many games, but always came
BACK.
It’s been a long time since I wrote poetry, and it feels good to be writing it again. This time I’m playing with one sentence poems and keeping with the same essence like my microfictions. Saying the most in just a few words. Are these poems about me? Some of them, but just know I’m writing about you too…just like the microfictions.
Thank you to Tabitha Blair for the 40 Rudegal Rules of Poetry!
Rule #11: One sentence can be a whole poem.
Peace,

Love this, it’s giving ghazal vibes and that’s my favorite form.
