A frisson of excitement
Frees me
If only for a moment
From the prison
I too often
Find myself inside
Barely able to function
Forced to suffer
The pains of yesterday
How did I ever get this way?
No longer living
I survive
Having lost all zest for life
A citizen of Darkness
Since I was banished from the Light
Response to the Word of the Day Challenge prompts: barely, yesterday, national, frisson and zest

Yo, hi, hello. I'm just your standard sarcastic, cynical, satirical guy who doesn't care much for acting in an 'age appropriate' manner, whatever that means. I write poetry and short stories. Want to know anything else? -> https://mspoetry.com/whos-matt
