DAY EIGHTEEN~~A "forget what I said earlier" poem~~18th November 2013.

18/11/2013

Write a "forget what I said earlier" poem. It could be a response to an earlier poem (or just earlier in general). One of those moments when you say something that ends up proving wrong or you wish you had taken back.

HOW I WISH I HAD NEVER SAID THAT!

18th November 2013


To put my foot in a grammatical mess
Would not be so earth shattering: If only.
To say when writing to a friend,
I am really anxious to meet you.

Am I really full of fear at the prospect
Of meeting my very good friend?
Anxiety implies a fear of danger or misfortune,
I wish I had never said that!

My desire to meet my friend is real,
I would love to rephrase the feeling,
Take back the unfortunate word anxious,
How I  wish I had never said that!

I am actually very eager to meet you,
Very happy and excited at the prospect.
I would replace the unfortunate word, anxious.
I wish I had never said that!
