Today being Sunday, there is no A to Z today. Here is my poem in response to the prompts at NaPoWriMo and Writer’s Digest’s Poem a Day Challenge.
Full Circle
1.
Here I am again: Again I’ve come full circle.
The flowers come too soon with so much left to do
stalled upside down in the loop-de-loop of progress
positive change slides back as bad habits undo
all hope mangled to disappointment, the cycle
continues. I can’t seem to break this ring cycle.
2.
The music is thick and syncopated, building
in complexity like an ear worm that won’t let go
It’s as if the drama mentions the previous
events so I can still understand how this goes
I hear the pattern repeating as I repeat
the stumbles and digressions I wouldn’t repeat
3.
this time, because this time was different, this time
I identified the source and changed the bad script
“Take that subconscious fears,” I said sure of success
But my ego read a different rehashed transcript
and so quickly all the old feelings were back again.
I can see the curve of my own back, here again.
Week in Review with My Deep Knowledge Worksheet
Working through the Deep Knowledge Worksheet to review this week’s depth posts, I experienced what it was like to think deeper, then deeper about the subject.
In DOK-2, I concluded that one of the rules of depth (as presented this week) is we have to connect an inner experience to an outer experience.
In DOK-3 I wrote, “Based on past events, if I connect universal symbols with specific sensory details, and compare or place their dualities in conflict, I will write more deeply.”
In DOK-4 I wrote, “I feel like I need to get in touch with my dream imagery.”
So through using this tool, I synthesized the information from the six posts from this week, and formed a plan of action to deepen my writing and thinking.
