There are probably a million ways to something,
fall into love, hate, etc.

What always works better, for me anyway,
eavesdropping.

I overheard things you would never say,
it’s hard to trap something.

In fact, nothing is off limits, I suppose,
There are many rules.

There are no rules.

Author’s Note:

NaPoWriMo Day 21. An erasure poem.”Our prompt for today (optional, as always) is an old favorite – the erasure! This involves taking a pre-existing text and blacking out or erasing words, while leaving the placement of the remaining words intact.”

I couldn’t get the spacing right so it appears just as a regular poem. But I used an article about writing poems from Writer’s Digest in Poetic Aside by Robert Lee Brewer, 5 Ways to Write A Poem. What fun.
