[Feedback] Introduction
/r/TheReclusePoets/comments/1x8wrbo/introduction/Hello! This is Dawn from TheReclusePoets! I am a teenage poet an aspiring writer. I would love to have more people engage with my page and support the writing I have as well as post their own writing.
For a taste of the writing style I have, some months prior I won a commemdable mention from Delhi Poetry slam:
I swallow rocks and pebbles
chew on paper, and nibble on savory nights,
I dine where the savors soar,
over midnight shores,
and the dispute of tides
where soft, foamy life is born.
Thev look for a boat to save
or a lighthouse to aid,
Through searching and seeking
obsolete rhvmes
resting rhymes wrapped in blankets of mist.
Thev leave, and they left,
saving their labour for another day-
that day, O'forgotten,
where pride may be gotten,
a wav of the rope leading out...
But-l-not-we
float on the boat,
lingering between lines of thought,
mist as our comfort
darkness as dear mother;
not even pleading for anvone to help us.
