Junkyard Quote 3, Week 1

"salty worm on concrete"

A helplessly dry feeling.
Defeated and lifelessly insignificant.
Unattractive and small.

That's what a shitty mood must feel like.

OR

An american robins treat.
A survival of the fittest match, owned... in a gamers world "pwned."

Good morning world.

  1. I enjoyed this J-Quote. It was very simple in a sense but for some odd reason, it brings a smile. To write a poem about a worm's state of condition and has an underlying meaning of feeling bad that day in such a simple poem, to me, is quite entertaining. I am still trying to get a grip on the long well-imaged words of contemporary poetry and some of it goes on and on that a short read is quite refreshing.
    However, if you would like to elaborate on what a 'salty worm on the pavement' is like then I believe it has the makings of a very entertaining piece. You could play on the thought of a "small" and "insignificant" worm's perspective about the robin who comes to prey on him and allow the worm to ramble on and take a pessimistic, judgmental, closed minded tone. Maybe you can take the 'voice' of the worm and add more into it when you are having a bad day.
