@Ken LeMarchand I thought about doing something like this for a while. As it would be cool to have Covers collaborate in some way to put our most cherish poems into an anthology. And someone with publishing experience(Adam,you or maybe Sophie) can spear head publishing the anthology. Anyone that publish a poetry book and be cool with project would spear head the publishing.

@Rachel Glass Thank you,Rachel. For allowing us to read your poetry and for leading the charge this entire month. Definitely well deserve.

@Marc Brimble Thank you,this was a cool poem to write and finally got things off my chest. Glad you found poem to be epic.

@Shen Friebe Thank you,Shen. Glad you enjoy this poem. Guess with you reading this more than once means multiple interpretations. Which is what I didn't expect. Again thank you so much,Shen.

@Marc Brimble This was essentially an Ars Poetica. Although Ars NaPoWriMo might be more appropriate. In any case,have you considered writing a poetry book? From your poems base on NaPoWriMo? That's I guess one way to not have them just fade in background. Something to consider. Its been awesome reading your work and can see you have really grown as a poet. Well done and congratulations on making it through April,Marc.

New Beginning that Never Happen Trigger Warning: Mentions of religion About a year ago,from this day I left the job I hated,and now I'm in a job I like,poetry Is now in question,I remember When I came here,I had a book Working on,now due to very Unfortunate events,unsure If poetry book is in the cards Now,maybe that is the point Of experimentation More breathing room to try new Things and write when there's something Worth mentioning,there's enough Poems about life,love and Favorite topics to write,so Many talks about approach Life and trying to make sense Many Hollywood Celebs In spotlight,so then why am I still here??? To be yes man Yes lord,yes your majesty Everyone saids "God has a plan for you" If I'm mistaken so did I. Unlike Christianity God,politics,religions Relationships,hell,even Humanity itself,art Never lie to me,express What I need to express or Get out of this life,been dead For very long time,likely For all of my childhood Wasted on dramas,abstractions Since that's what the Bible is Four years on self improvement Yet,never equated to What my whole being always Wanted,you took my dreams a Way,the one thing I love,when You took that from me,you made An enemy,by stabbing Hope in the face,like you care Love hurts enough to be hate Scar for eternity,life Ended before it started Does this mean poetry did too????????????????????? ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Side Note: I usually don't like to write this kind of content,since I did this alot in my early early days of poetry. Talking about life,or self help content. Today felt needed as I've notice I've grown bitter lately and as of right now,poetry is the one outlet I can express what I'm really feeling. With that said,thank you all who have contributed to this experience. Its always cool to be around Covers. And if theres an available opportunity I can make it too,I'm happy to swing by. See you all very soon and as someone once said: "Happy Writing".

@Shen Friebe This is well executed. You manage to say alot without having too many lines. Haikus are meant to paint a picture and you did this wonderfully.

@Marc Brimble From the looks of your poem,its might have something to do with inspiration. And your form play was really good. Well done on your poem,looking forward to your last poem of NaPoWriMo 2022.

@Marc Brimble Thank you,I am glad you haven't been tired of my work,yet. Yep,one day more of NaPoWriMo 2022.
