Free Verse: Phantom limb + Neil Hilborn’s OCD

So, I’m trying to keep to a regular schedule for this blog and decided to turn Fridays into Free Verse Fridays. This week I have a semi-old piece that I did for a lit mag that doesn’t look like it’s going to see the light of day.

Free Verse - Phantom Limb

Also, I feel like the world needs to hear/read more poetry so I want to attach spoken word/written poetry to this weekly post (I’ll be mixing classics with the new stuff I love) and I have to start it off with the completely heartbreaking piece entitled “OCD” by Neil Hilborn. This has been making its much deserved rounds on the internet.

I want her back so bad
I leave the door unlocked
I leave the lights on
