A twiglet is a short phrase. Its aim is to “prompt” a thought. If something comes to mind, write. A polished piece isn’t the goal; creativity is. Leave a link, if you’d like your work read, but comments should not be expected.
I’m too human to live without love
to decline all relationships
to insist on my own way all the time
to take and never give
to ask, to insist, to petition
yet never say thank you
or acknowledge a no or not now
I’m too human to be perfect
too human to never cry
too human not think of myself
and too humane not to forgive
myself and other humans.
[…] Twiglet 145 too human […]

OK I had written most of this last night, but when the prompts mash so nicely I can’t resist…

Begin again… Not sure I could do it again, but shedding this old skin, hm, that would be nice.
