Clever you; a shot
of ink on a blank
page goes a long
way turning it
into a nice gem

Got to love blank stares ... there is so much to do with them. You could slap a little paint on it or in our case produce words that will define that look.

Writers can do so much good ... or harm.

Oh yes. How a poet loves a blank page. They just have to leave their footprints on it. Wonferful.

Ah. This is how I feel about a blank canvas awaiting transformation. These white pages are the caterpillar and we are the metamorphosis, changing it and shaping it into something beautiful. Amazing as always ❤️

You are on a roll today Jacob. Another powerful piece conveyed in few words that have impact in their brevity, disappointment and hurt as the rejected turns their feelings into poetry.
