listening test

by rosegerin

what is the trick to growing roses. put your ear to the ground and listen to how deep the growling is. i have my own halloween machine and we can dress up. i don’t order anything because nobody sells super sonic holy water. i’m not independent, i’m just scared of help.

The imagery of putting your ear to the ground is extremely powerful, and shows how we have to understand the environment we live in to truly be part of the world. Look at "poetry writing tips" in the "resources" section for ideas for writing about your surroundings, dreams, music, and even more!
