Going Camping (Free verse) by jessicazee
A quick death, a campfired moth. Ash so light, wings disappear, flying, dying again toward the canopy. You can only see above your wooden flame one half hour of meteor shower. A few sites down at the outhouse the shower drips all night, mulberry trees whisper, "please shake us" "we need to let things go"

Up the ladder: Melodrama Madness

The first three verses great. And the mulberry tree lines are good - seem to complete the moth lines. But in between, well, why?

This is a good sketch for the poem that evolved from it.
