SHUT UP & WRITE!

Side-eye Selfie photo by A.B. Godfreed

words
stick in my throat
so narrow
fallow
lined in my gullet
unsaid
and
unsound
not found on any page
known to
words
that
stick in my throat
as I hear myself
scream
silence
for it
needs to
be right
in
this can’t
get
past
my damn self
with
words
that
stick in my throat
piled high
like
some pie in the sky
waiting
4
pigs to fly
b4
I turn
these
words
that
stick in my throat
into
inscriptions of life
unlived
as I sit here
blank verse
in
some kind of
why
don’t you
just
shut up
&
write these
stick in my throat
words
