"Say Anything"

This assignment was to address word choice and the relationship between the writer and the language. I wrote about how word choosing sometimes inhibits expression. Enjoy. Or don't.

Tortuous Delight

Simple pleasures of glorious creation,

Childish giggles and delight.

Ambling articulation

Methodical, pausing, selecting,

Purposeful and intentional,

Bogged, paralyzed, flogged, beaten,

Train derailed.

Amusement garbled, happiness mutilated.

Ramblings expand, frustration explodes,

Grasping, plotting, scheming, grabbing,

Unraveling, chaotic climax!

Inspiration resurrected, confusion forgiven

Excursion resumed, deliverance,

Mission accomplished.
