glass half
Michaela Godding
I’m sorry
for this mess all over the all over
the carpet
dragging at my heels
like a half dead dog
look at me
my empty is so big
my stomach full
of stars
unapologizing
on the way down
at least I can say
I bellied the sky.

Write After: National Poetry Month with One Poem Only
Write After is a way to encourage poets to listen and write, and use National Poetry Month to highlight how listening to poetry makes us better poets. I know I write the best when I’m surrounded by beautiful poetry–it’s part of the reason I created this podcast, and I want to encourage others to share this practice. We'll get started in April. You can share to #WriteAfterOPO.
