Unmanageable Mana



This madness is malaise malapropism

malfunctioning non-malevolently

and my malignant mind just can't

manage a malnutritioned soul


as well as a homeless poet

trapped within the helpless confines

of her own thoughts. Indeed -

it's a tragedy the likes of Shakespeare

wouldn't even dare to touch because

the melodrama of my "mal"crazed mind

as I fall even more deeply in love

with a mere dictionary


is far too much for anyone

to understand sanely.

Homework assignment for my English class. He took an outdated dictionary and tore a page out for each of us and said our homework assignment was to make something out of the page or be inspired by the page. Mine was obviously a page of M words.


Some kids drew definitions of words on the page, others wrote black out poetry, one even made origami out of his page. It was an awesome assignment.
