bathtub poetry

I took a bath before to try to help with my fibromyalgia pain. I was reading a book called How Poetry Can Change Your Heart by Andrea Gibson and Megan Falley. I only got a few pages in when I realized I had a poem inside me, waiting to burst free. Luckily, I had my cell phone near the bathtub. I opened up my "Notes" app, where I regularly write poetry, and wrote this short poem. Do you ever write poetry in odd places?

We Will Not Be Silenced 

the stories they

whisper about 

behind the backs 

of the unfortunate 

protagonists are

the stories that

must be shouted aloud

in the most brash,

urgent way possible
