Beast in Hand
I pick it up
The pencil heavy in my hand
The blank book stares me down
Like a hungry predator, and I am the prey
The innocent rabbit about to be splattered across the white snow that is its pages
And yet
I touch pencil to paper
Despite the rabbit within warning me of the wolf that is the page
I have a story to share
A story that breathes, a story that writhes
And I will not let the fear of a beast stop it from living

Hey, I'm Taylor! Got a little in my feels with this one. A little silly, if you will. Thanks for reading!
