The whole poem was beautiful and extremely relatable. That part right there... is a straight prescription for those of us in this strange bottleneck wormhole. Thank you. ❤️ PoetryRx over here.
(My compliments to the chef! Plenty of sage, just the right thyme. Coulda' swore 'twas Minerva's owl dining in the dark. Oh...splendid repast.) Angela, it was so nice to hear your voice in recitative! It was the icing on the dessert for sure, and also the melody; the word sounds themselves--harmony. Beautiful meter and free flowing, almost fugue-like...thought I heard a grace note or two (I used to be a drummer long time back). Your thoughts and ideas? Dynamics and entree, hands down. The first 5 lines set the tone, and then you took us on a stream-of consciousness ride, exposing the internal wrestling match that every poet can't help but engage--and in this case, it appears (unless I'm mistaken) as if you won. Or was it a draw? Either way, que bonita! Double hearts and double thumbs up. (do you write any haikus?)
Holy 🤯 -- this part:
"No knife to carve out self worth
Nothing to do but give birth
In words…
Unlocking Scribbles…
Untangling Nerves."

My deepest thanks for the sentiments so rich...I do not write haiku but I might! 🙏🏻❤️
Please do! I bet you'd make mince meat out of it.
Fantastic!
Thank you

Because irrational is rational in an upside world ;-)
Nice!! 👍 ;)
