NAPOWRIMO24 #14: THE AUTHOR RESPONDS TO HIS DECADE-OLD SUICIDE NOTE
#prompt: write a poem of at least 10 lines using anaphora (each line begins with the same word/phrase).#this is one of my fave things to do in poetry so i was pretty psyched to see today's prompt.#the bones of this poem already existed for a response to an assignment earlier this year but they needed intense reworks#and there was no anaphora to it before except some repetition of the phrase ''because''. this is a much different poem than it was 2 mos ag#it's a lot more solid in its sense of self now. i like it much more than i did this morning.#(also just to cover my bases: this was loosely inspired by ocean vuong's poem reasons for staying. i think it exists on its own merit-#enough that i probably don't *have* to say that. but just in case someone reads it and thinks ''hey wait a minute'' lmao)#napowrimo 2024#napowrimo#spilled ink#writeblr#poems on tumblr#poetry on tumblr#poets on tumblr#queer poets on tumblr#queer poetry#poetry#recovery poetry#tw suicide ment#tw suicide#tw suicide attempt#damien.txt#img desc in alt text
