unlearn

How can I unsee

when it pierces my skin?

Untapped knowledge

unidentified stains

permeate my soul.

Underneath it all

I am undone.

Unsettled

I understand

the undertones

and realize

I can’t unlearn

what I know about you.

For today’s prompt, write a learning poem. The poem could be about things you learn at school, on the streets, or in affairs of the heart. Heck, the poem could be about things you learn poeming–or anything really. Have fun with it! – Robert Lee Brewer
