This was written as a challenge from Angelia One from Team Demigods who teaches the Semigods . #feartheredpen During the # SpillTheInk workshop with Scott Sneddon . # 2017inkedwallsday 30 # 2017inkedwallsprompt 30 # spilltheink # napowrimo # npwm   # napowrimo2017 One Two Three Maybe I will let it be... White or blue One line or two It really isn't up to you. All you want is a son My bearing hips Flowering canals I will say when I am done. I am clothed by your pride Your strength wraps my wrist My innocence replaced by your essence Where I lie is your bliss. My loss is your gain Your pleasure is my pain. I am bare As I am green You are blue Under it all, You have not a clue. - Swit Marie 1235H 29th April 2017 Titik Merah Gallery

This was the activity/assignment Scott Sneddon gave the kids for the # SpillTheInk workshop held at the end of # NaPoWriMo. We had to walk around the gallery and write a poem about the artwork. It should reference the artwork and it should also be able to stand alone as a poem. #NPWM #2017inkedwallsday29 #2017inkedwallsprompt29 #NaPoWriMo2017 Beneath the surface Locked away Hidden treasures Rooted here to stay. In the clouds Or underwater? Could it be bulbs Or tubers? Growth restricted Some escapes Floating to where the air goes Or how the water flows. From the start, it is cultivated Submerged in culture Strongly rooted Blossoming with hope. - Swit Marie 1211pm 29th April 2017 Titik Merah Gallery

NaPoWriMo Day 27 Prompt taken from  Poetry Cafe KL Biligual poem! Write a bilingual poem on any topic. The first language must be in English but the second one is yours to choose. There should be a balanced use of both languages in the poem. I recommend googling and reading Gustavo Perez Firmat's poem " Bilingual Blues " for reference. If you are fluent in only one language, don't be discouraged. Ask around, get advice from others and just have fun with it  :) BONUS CHALLENGE Use at least 3 of these random words in your poem -> dreamless, machete, hopscotch, carnival, bogeyman, comet, stone, tongues.

NaPoWriMo Day 22 Prompt taken from Spill The Ink Poetry Lab by If Walls Could Talk KL "Write about a journey. It could be internal or external, real or imagined" #spilltheink #murukumurmurations #2017inkedwallsday22 #2017inkedwallsprompt22 #NaPoWriMo2017 #NaPoWriMo #NPWM At this very moment My eyelids descend My mind starts to flow Into the deep my heart descends, Making sure not to resist the flow, My memories lapse for a moment. My soul streams with the flow, Engaged in the present moment, Ready to slingshot out of the descend. A new moment arises, a new flow from a descend to ascension. - Swit Marie 1826H, 26th April 2017 Astro HQ
