Muse in the Morning

Time for a break from poetry…in order to create some art.

I was an onion, layers and layers and layers under a thin, papery skin. If anyone had been able to cut me open, my bitter, irritating juices would have stung their eyes, and they would have cried. Although I couldn’t cry myself, much at the time.

But no one would cut me open.

to be simply yourself

and don’t compare or compete,

everybody will respect you.
