Hiya!
I went with the American spelling that Random Word Generator gave me today, and left out the ‘u’ in ‘mold’. My Word document didn’t like that very much. I then left off the British ‘s’ ending for ‘toward’ to try and not mix the poem up too much. I did indeed feel rebellious 😉
Rotation Devote Criticism Feather Praise Arrow Mold Size Flag
It was a kind of weird rotation:
Their willingness to devote time
To overwhelming criticism
Of every move I made.
I wish I could say
That I batted each dig aside
Like some inconsequential feather
Floating on a gentle breeze…
I have had huge amounts of praise,
So much that I should have direction;
My compass arrow toward success –
But that was not my mold.
I let them slice me up
To a more manageable size;
Curled in upon myself
And raised that bleached-out flag.
Over a score years later,
I am weary of waiving.
The plans are all written
And change is afoot.
