Tag, I'm it.

In the fourth installment of the round robin blog writing challenge started by Gryphon, I have been tapped to take my swings.

Here are the proceeding entries in order to get you up to speed.
First
Second
Third

And away we go...

A pane of glass that separates
the world outside from inner states

so privately I seek out praise
to terrified to meet their gaze

alone I sit in solitude
while mustering the fortitude

to go outside and let it show
that I can dance in Luna’s glow.


Afraid I am to temp the fates
My fear to fail I can’t abate

And still I know my voice must raise
To tell the world they can not phase

this man who can, though it may blow
withstand the force of Ursa’s flow

On to my boy Richard, how I haven't asked if he wants to do this but he is always game for such things.

Okay... my little paragraph took about two weeks; you wrote a full poem in about a day. I hate you.
