Sprawling, yet indolent
The warmth of cotton and wool
Captures the weary, the
tension is lost from the spool.
Coiling, and creamy white,
The embracing slumber of fools
Holds my bones enclasped,
Captures the sluggish and languid
Tears of leaking eyelids
Softening all around, like
infectious, yielding yet
invasive foes capturing all.
My duvet

No, not that thing, the other
Actually it's "The thing on
I can safely say this poem
mmm
And that's about as warm and prais-y as I get. It's high praise.
You'll understand. I'm a cynic. I just can't get all gushy over a poem about a duvet. But it's cute. You've got a rhyme going strongly in the first stanza that I don't really see carried through to the other two stanzas, but I'm not a fan of rhyming poetry anyways. You could go all-rhyme, no rhyme, partial rhyme, it's your poem. As long as it's a deliberate choice.
Or you could even leave it the way it is. Don't you love choices?
I could go for a duvet right about now. I'm freezing my arse off because certain people don't apparently believe in heating the house.
It's not really about a duvet
But it is still about a duvet too.
It makes me want to walk away
That's what I wanted to do.
And yes, I do like choices. I wish I had in infinite number of chioces. And I do. Its making the fuckers that gets me.
No kidding. It's nice to
It's nice to have choices. And then as soon as you make one, all the other little bastards go away and you no longer have choices. So it's better to never make a decision so that you always have options.
Its when they go about making
Its when they go about making themselves, or cheating on you with other people and getting made by them that the shit hits the fan.
That's why I never use fans
I don't want any shit to hit it.
Wow.
You two crack me up.
On re-reading this it reminds
Except I don't care about women's rights. Bwahahaha!
Making a choice is a dorrway
I can see what you mean about
I think the whole poem works well! It feels warm and comforting, which are always qualities that I like!
