Apologies to this Pencil

I love this poem in so many ways. It's amazing. The meaning of the poem, the way it is written. Its beautiful.

Hey! Love the idea... god it's really cool.

couple possible suggestions

Apologies to my pen
My hands feel like stone
How fitting is that feeling?
How it feels to be alone

If you keep hands plural, it states that you're writing with two hands. I would make it

Apologies to my pen
My hand feels like stone

makes more sense

Apologies to this pen
Drain out your dark ink
Darkest words flow here
Darker words make Reader think

In the last line I would switch Darkest and Darker because Darkest puts more of an emphasis on the phrase.

Also, in the last line, Darker words make Reader think, I would change Reader to Him/Her depending on who you're writing it to. It flows better with the syllable count. Or, you could put Darker words flow (on) here and keep Reader in the next phrase and it flows just as well.

So it would look like this:

Apologies to this pen
Drain out your dark ink
Darker words flow here
Darkest words makes him think

Or

Apologies to this pen
Drain out your dark ink
Darker words flow on here
Darkest words make Reader think

It's an awesome poem. Love the sympathy for the pen and pencil! A great idea.

Oh...you have NO idea jesse. not a CLUE..

How it feels to be alone

^^...aloneness in its many forms hurts..more when nobody knows who you are. sorry. personal analysis..

great poem, as always.
