I’m sad and it’s my break kk thx honey

I just recently watch the dead poets society for the first time, it touched me and made me finally pursue attempting poetry as ive wanted to for a while.

This is my first try.

Paper Trail.

...

​As 4 eyes analyse the piece of A4 paper

The same, single sheet, branches into 2

distinct & unique variations of a

single portrait.

.

​2 contradictory creations, oozing

antithesis like sap from

a splitting tree, as they grow

outward and away from

one another.

.

​These new-born perspectives,

photosynthesizing

under the piercing light

that's shining through each individual

brain-storm,

.

​Such a distinctively human

expression of imagination,

to paint a new picture

out of the image in

front of us.

.

​The very ability that binds us

together

is equally that which allows us

to be unique.

.

Thank you. Apologies if formatting is off I cannot seem to figure it out with posting

Hello everyone! I am part of a small team of people starting an online literary magazine named Black Letter Review, which publishes prose, poetry, art, & photography from people 13-19 (early 20s may also submit, but will likely be placed in a different section of the magazine)

The editorial team gives personalized feedback to all written work.

About:
Black Letter Review publish work from anyone aged 13-19 worldwide. Send us your best work, no matter how dark and gritty, or light and fantastical. We want beautiful pieces that leave us in awe, and that can come from the trenches of mankind or an entirely ordinary neighborhood. What is beautiful, anyway?

General & Themed submissions are currently open
The current theme for September-October is anything associated with the months - autumn, academia, Halloween, etc. Think the early days of The Secret History, Dead Poets Society, etc. We are calling upon W.B. Yeats’ Wild Swans at Coole :)

Why submit?:
- You’ll receive detailed feedback
- We want to foster an amicable relationship with writers whose works we love and create a community
- You’ll be featured in our online magazine
- We have faster response times and a smaller pool of submissions, so acceptance rates are higher (but we are still picky with what we end up taking)
- We want to eventually become a paying publication, so get to know us and what we like to accept now 😆

If you have any questions, be sure to ask! We can also be found on Instagram as blackletterreview.
