Working Title (MSP Poetry Curation)

A Search for the Cure by @emptyintentions is a horror narrative poem that lives up to the genre. Highly recommend, if only for the shivery feeling that it gives me!

On Characters and Identity by @anikekirsten is a take on what is normally called "found" poetry- where you take a source of text (usually a book page of some kind, but it can be anything) and create a poem out of it. The Writer's Block has done a number of these, but this one is one of my favorites- I especially love the ending.

the little things, like you
not thinking i'm just being a poet
when i tell you how sometimes
i feel like a face without a nose.

Little Things by @djoi fills the reader with longing and makes one say "I've felt that". The ending in particular resonates.

how is it that we never can part?
you are the villain in all of my art;

The Villain in my Poetry by @lukakorba is a lovely subversion of the usual cliche love poem, of the idea that a person can inspire positive aspects within a poem.

in my delirium
I heard your voice
and followed
until I could go no further

Until by @mamadini makes me think of the dangerous aspects of love, without ever mentioning love or delving into the cliches that love poetry generally suffers from. She's a wonderful poet and you should give her a follow.
