On A Crumple paper


I try to write
     through the folds.
The crinkles are
     getting in the way.
Through folds now hide
     a word or two.
I devise this is hard to do.
Crinkle page; crease increase
     until I can write no more.
Try to write through
     crumple page
         I will not do no more!

April 18th Prompt: “To make this process more difficult” as poet Mark Irwin has written, crumple a sheet of paper. Uncrumple it, but don’t smooth it out and then write a poem on it.
