POEM STARTER

'Backwards'

Use this single word to inspire a poem.

Regressing

Never forward

Not even a step

I can’t


I can’t

do this anymore

you are moving

but not advancing

No,

you’re going backwards

which is worse than

not moving at all


Never forward

I can’t

I don’t know what to do

I feel helpless

I can’t help you

(Sorry I haven’t been active, and probably won’t be for a while. My sister is in the hospital. She’s stable, but we don’t know what’s wrong, so it’s been a lot of visiting her and then coming home and doing homework and eventually remembering to eat. 😅)
