Poetry

Voyager I

Posted by Toni on

i wrote a poem
the world doesn’t care

i may as well have asked it
what to wear

i wrote a poem
twelve others saw it

some read my poem
five of them liked it

i wrote a poem
cast to the wind

random writer of poems
on a muse’s whim

thin as a heartbeat
in algorithmic heat

i wrote a poem
no need for despair

real as the planets
a scattering found rare

maybe it should be called ‘tincture for obscurity’?

    The silver lining is that WP is a good filtering process for your true audience. I liked the loneliness of your poem and I think many can relate 💖
