Mo’s Prose – Day 316 / My Voice

Day 316 – Friday, March 24, 2017

I, have a voice.
Just as you have;
Just as everyone has

And it speaks with words,
That are no better or worse
Than those that emanate from your mouths

–But I, choose to use them selfishly

This poetry, these thoughts;
They are deep, inside-my-head opinions,
That you have no rights to

And yet –I choose to post them,
For all the world to see.
So who the hell am I?

I don’t know if I’ve ever felt more vulnerable,
Than when I hit “Publish”
But I can’t stop,
At least not for another 50 days

And what then?
Dear artistic Goddess?
I’ve prayed you would save me,
For the last sixteen months…

What do I say then?
How do I use this voice?
How to do I bend my words
To win your fickle approval?
