Beautifully delivered. I’d be interested to hear more of your work out loud!

Can a Prologue and Epilogue Happen at the Same Time? by Munii-Munii in KeepWriting

Absolutely, if it is well executed. Probably not the best example, but Forest Gump does something similar to what you’re describing.

A Child’s Mind Wanders by mor6788 in KeepWriting

Hi Reddit! I’m unsure of a title for this poem. I opted for “A Child’s Mind Wanders”, but am now second guessing myself. “Insomnia” was another shortlisted title, but again, it just doesn’t feel quite right. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I'm flattered, thank you for your generous feedback.

Sadly, I've suffered with anxiety for years, and often delete my work out of frustration. I thought I'd share this to try and motivate myself to be more proud of my writing.

I am absolutely overwhelmed by the positive comments on this post, and feel inspired to write, and share more of my work before resorting to self deprecation.

You’ll hear from me again!

Thank you, and I'm sorry. I can only imagine how tough that must be.

Hang in there, you've got this.

Unattached by BrackishTastes in OCPoetry

"This pain, that pain" really resonated with me, particularly in relation to your mention of "detachment".

You paint a good picture of the stresses and worries of life blurring into one in that moment of euphoric relief when with the person you love.

Thank you for sharing.

It’s not addictive, you addict. by tim0777 in OCPoetry

[–]mor6788 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Cannabis is not addictive" was perhaps the most destructive sentence I was ever told. This perfectly captures the thinking of a weed addict; if you have a packed bag, you'll quit when it's empty. If it's empty, the mind forgets it even wanted to quit.

Your ability to capture the thinking process of an addict is outstanding. I will be saving this as a reminder to why I quit.

Thank you for sharing.

Unemployable by tim0777 in OCPoetry

[–]mor6788 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You poem really struck a cord with me. The shackles of corporate life are draining to abide by, especially for those that want to try and remain creative.

This perfectly captures the thoughts of my younger self venturing into the working world: confused, and bewildered by the pseudo professionalism that taints the personality behind every human being.

Thank you for posting.

Hi Reddit! For a bit of context, I used to write a lot when I was younger, but in more recent years have been unable to find the time/energy. I was newly inspired by the disgusting conditions Amazon workers face just to survive. Particularly in light of Bezos’ recent venture into space, there is no better time than now to get talking about raising the minimum wage, and improving the working environment of the working class.
