http://slow.writerscafe.org/painted-maypole The original writings of author misguidedpoet en-us Copyright 2026 WritersCafe.org 1776228230 WritersCafe.org RSS Generator 15 I attempted to capture the beauty of this wonderful place but alcohol dulled my senses so this poem is a poor tribute to what was a delicious five days...this is one of my few happy poems! http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/painted-maypole/1028431/ this was actually the first poem I ever wrote properly- bar school things...I was about thirteen and it was about the first crush I ever had on a girl and the confusion which arose from it http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/painted-maypole/1005064/ I wrote this after I had been out when I was feeling very fragile. Sadly my friends chose the seediest bar imaginable with the most grotesquely forward men! http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/painted-maypole/1004017/ This is the first part of the first chapter of a short story that I started yesterday. I have never written prose before but I thought that I would give it a try! Sorry if it is pretentious and awful! http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/painted-maypole/1003742/ I wrote this after a short fling with a beautiful yet vapid person- they bought me tulips&I saw the similarity between our fling and the flowers which never had a chance to properly live&take root... http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/painted-maypole/1003738/ I wrote this on a bus on the way to see my dearest friend. It is mainly jottings but I shall perfect it when I have the time and the ambition to do so. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/painted-maypole/1003553/
