I'm at a poetry workshop
Not feeling very poetic
Hmm I'm kinda distracted
Kinda uninterested
I'm free writing for the first time

I rarely edit my poems anyways
I guess I used to try rhyme them
I'm kinda stuck
I'm not sure what or how
The two poems shown are connected
I guess they both speak to their disability
I have forgot the first poem

The book looks cool as well
Perhaps a bit hard to read
Its been 5 mins
End of writing
