Just so you know I love the poems you guys write for the Tuesday Blog Poetry Slams... I read and digest every single one. I want to highlight some pieces that I love, there are lot to choose from, so these are some that stuck out... I will highlight pieces from commenters every week! By the way: I love y'all!
(tomorrow's topic is "Silence" by the way)

me: amber-hued honey
slowly entering your mouth
shy and slippery
wanna be inside your heaven
you: juicy purple grapes
slick on the outside
bursting with flavor on the inside
rolling sweetness on your body
from Poetry Blog Slam 14 - Badusabrina said... Inspired by Bag Lady
Issues that I can't let go of
Heartache that holds on like a cancer
Lovers from a past life
Baggage
Only way to relieve this back pain is to
let it go
Drop the Coach Purse full of anger
Set down the reusable grocery bag with the tears
Throw away the plastic bag of misery
Let it go
I appreciate depth but down is depressing
I am high like Him
Gravity is grief and levitating is greatness
Lift up
Chin up
Speak up
Don't talk downwards drowning words
'cause that shit is for shallow people
and I'm just too damn deep.
