Reblog Tuesday: “poems by ericka clay” @ErickaMClay

I have the pleasure of following Ericka on multiple social media platforms – the link below is her Tumblr blog – and as thought-provoking as her writing is, she is equally as funny.

Ericka is a published novelist and is the founder of Tipsy Lit.

This poem, titled “Seconds”, is a favorite of mine and is a good representation of the type of piece she produces on a regular basis. I hope you enjoy – and investigate the rest of her work!

Agreed, Steven. The woman goes from catch your breath heartrending to spit (insert favorite beverage here) all over your keyboard hilarious. Thanks for the reblog – I’d missed this one!
