A tortured poet

Inspiration strikes the tortured poet under the stars 🌟✍️ #WriterLife

I’m the tortured poet
sitting solumnly
during starlit hours
staring at blank screen.

My troubled timeline
is littered, with love–
but too many barbs
beat tortured topics.

Dare I post
one more poem
knocking noxious
power, people and politics?

I’ll tap and type
torments trapped
deep in the soul
of this tortured poet.
