This post (poem) was delayed as it challenged me, and I struggled with it.
Had I allowed longer, I may perhaps have improved on the rougher changes and passages.
Publishing now helps continue my fight with perfectionism.
shoulds
(so many. too many)
shouldy
(ancient, mouldy)
scouldy
(always your words seem)
scauldy
(and meant to burn?)
cloudy's
(the weight that bears down)
cloud is
(damp, dreary, life giving)
is clout
(when already down on myself)
cut ails
(perseverance whipped)
curtail
(hostility hinders, positivity promotes)
clarity
(sought in deed and in mind)
