Words Nest
My thoughts are
Knotted:
Woolly words
Tangled
Like knitting;
Mind unravelling,
Letters bump and jostle,
Hustle me.
Knock kneed
I freeze
In fright
But if I can’t
Get the words right
How will they know
If I’ve got something to say?
Knotted:
Woolly words
Tangled
Like knitting;
Mind unravelling,
Letters bump and jostle,
Hustle me.
Knock kneed
I freeze
In fright
But if I can’t
Get the words right
How will they know
If I’ve got something to say?
