Second General Meeting

Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, March 17th, from 12:30-1:30 p.m. in room 2200.04 North Hall.  The event will be a reading session where everyone can share their own writing and receive comments and critiques from everybody including the executive board and our members.  This is a great opportunity to read some good creative work and get a second opinion on your own writing.  Please bring any work you have that you are willing to share, whether it is fiction, poetry or even non-fiction.



Best,
FWA

Out of Touch

by Stacey-Ann McAllister

My body's turning against me.
My mind's losing control.
Heavy breathing,
my feelings aren't cold;
now they're hot,
pulsing heat
I never knew I'd feel again.
Layers peel away against a stranger's bed.

Hold on,
wait a minute.
My past is fading,
and I'm not in it.
Leave some time to catch up to my mistakes.
Make new heartbreaks
to dull the pangs of old.

His fingers travel,
and in terror, I close my eyes.

I'm pretty sure poetry is allowed? I hope so, since I don't really have the time to sit down and write out any stories yet, let alone silly poems =/
