I’ve stopped slacking and hopped back into my writing group! The prompt for this week was about pick-up lines. Actually the prompt was somewhat complicated but I wanted to condense my entry into a short poem.
My First Pickup Line
Did it hurt…

searing eyes slicing
charred and bleeding
I need a pickup
please queue to help
sweep the ashes of my ego
into the bin
where I
tossed
my
pride
when I started:
Did it hurt…?
