My Feverish Pen
was wallowing in its misery,
small enough to subdue its melancholy,
bright enough to throw into relief
the dark plastic that cluttered it.
i heard that much rage was crawling
together with its flooded ink
trying to fetch fresh ink and wet its tip
that yearns to bleed words of relief.
my pen was trembling and about to vomit blue ink;
my pen’s ink would turn to ice
catching a deep glimpse of the scorching sun,
and my pen’s throat would swallow all the yearnings;
despair and outrage are feelings that accompany
the breath-stopping agony of rejection.
if i could be certain that my pain would not die
& the misery would not last till eternity,
soon, i’d be cuddling my pen with affection
& give birth to new soul-calming lines.

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was curious what all is needed to get setup?
I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% sure. Any recommendations or
advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

Hello! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog post or vice-versa?
My website goes over a lot of the same topics
as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other.
If you are interested feel free to send me an email.
I look forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by
the way!

Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and
said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the
shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her
ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know
this is totally off topic but I had to tell
someone!

Great work!

Great blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers?
I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little
lost on everything. Would you advise starting with a free platform
like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many
options out there that I’m completely confused .. Any ideas?
Kudos!
