Hey everyone! Apologies for not posting last week, BUT I have a good reason, because on Saturday I was at the UK National Poetry Slam! I am happy to announce that I came in 3rd place! I had spent so much time practicing that I didn’t have enough energy to write a post. BUT I’m back!! AND here with a NEW POEM 😱😱😱😎😎💥💥💥 I wrote this about how recently I’ve finally been able to take control of my negative feelings rather than get stuck in them. Enjoy!

Your hand slips between your lips 
 and lifts all her fingers inside. 
 She’s not lost anymore,
 walks straight past the canines (sharp!)
 takes a right at the left molar 
 2 paces South of the Tongue and 
 -- aha!
 
 The Oesophagus.
