Scattered Poem

This poem is scattered, meaning it doesn't go together

Even in my darkness, I’m someone’s child

Even in my light, I’m a beautiful wild

I’m scattered like the thoughts in my mind

I’m random like a unusual, historical find

I laugh at absolutely nothing

I cry about that something

This world gets my middle finger

My world, because I get triggered

Going from one topic to another

Conversations that smother

Deep love, deep hate

Not one for the Pearly Gate

Tuck me into bed, hyped

Blankets on, I need tears wiped

This is me

Let it be!

Author's Note

This poem is a roller coaster. It's scattered. I wanted to write a simulation of my crazy wild

what a great dichotomy of how in your poem,
the depiction of who you are,
love each line, :)

Jenni,
It is indeed a rollercoaster, up and down and full of unexpected turns... and not at all overdone! I find that poetry is a map to self-evaluation and examination. Good stuff!

All of my writing is trauma-based, what I struggle with, and how I feel...thank you so much

Jenni..
It hurts my heart when I hear of someone's trauma, and i cannot do anything to help...

I'm okay. I'm working on myself, it's been a long journey

Writing is always good therapy... All that disembodied crap buzzing around in the air like flies on a cow patty... Words give them handles so you can grab them as words and trap them on paper as a conqueror...

A scattered poem is born free of pose or preach, Jenni. Your 'crazy wild' is a natural birth of how and what you feel without any reference to academic incursion., For me, that is 100% unique.

I think your writing is preciously you.
Jenni Bailey can do and say anything in any way she/YOU chooses;. Unless you choose otherwise, of course! Smiles winging their way. :)
