365 Days of Poems: Day 1 (January 1st)

Sharp Stomach

A knife point

digging into the thin stretch of organ

Not pushing inward from the outside

but rather emerging small

as a hunger

deep in the pit

that grows and twists and evolves

into a never-ending ascension

like bile rising in one's throat

The stinging and burning and prickling

a cousin of the cold edge of steel

as it slices through pink muscle

until it forges something new and terrified

and hungry itself:

A starvation

#day 1 of my poems! #yay! #now the posting of these are going to be a bit different than how i did (or at least tried to do) with my prompts #im not putting myself on as strict of a time limit/frame as i did for the prompts #because im writing a poem as opposed to making a prompt and then copying and pasting the definitions for the words in the prompt #moreover these are rough drafts of poems but i still want to be happy with them as rough drafts before posting them #so thats why posting them may be a little slower or more inconsistent #that being said im gonna try my damnedest to try to write a poem a day or if i cant to write a 'missed' poem on the following day #and also like my writing prompts i will be using these tags as a lil diary of sorts #because this is for the 1st i will share that for the 1st of the new year my girlfriend and i just spent the day in together #we ended up playing a couple games of magic the gathering which was fun #but i began feeling rather tired and had to take a nap so that kinda sucked #all in all i think it was a good day #as for this poem i think im decently happy with it #when i eventually revise it i will probably tighten up or even elaborate on some places #but overall i think its pretty strong and a good start to the year #(also this poem is partially inspired by the fact ive been watching a lot of supereyepatchwolfs playthroughs of fear and hunger 1 and 2) #thanks for reading #writing #writer #creative writing #writing prompt #poem #poetry #writeblr #trying to be a writeblr at least
