Poem-A-Day Challenge: Day 2

Writing Article

Prompt: Write an outsider poem. You can be the outsider; someone else can be the outsider; or it can even be an animal or inanimate object that’s the outsider.

HEARTBURN

She wears it on her sleeve
because it does not fit
in her chest, too full
of life to be contained,
much too easy to break.

2009 Poem-A-Day Challenge: The inimitable Robert Brewer — editor of Writer’s Market and Poet’s Market, and proprietor of the wonderful blog, Poetic Asides — is posting a daily prompt and I, along with numerous others, are commiting to write a poem inspired by that prompt.

Every. Day.
