This is an excellent topic. We are our own worst enemy: "Unknowingly sabotage
My likelihood to break free" When I think of a frame I think of something valued or fancy. My therapist pointed out to me that there was something I strangely enjoyed about my memory: "Framed and Boxed inside my shell" My gift to myself.

    We are indeed our own worst enemy. I thought of a frame because it was closed and constricted yet is something that people look at all the time.

There are times when we are our own worst enemy as we sabotage our own lives unknowingly by shying away from the world, a poignant write, love Dolly x

    Thank you. I spent many years sabotaging myself before I realized.

I like the message you are sending with this writing. I think we all make boxes around ourselves at times. The artwork you added is unique. I wish you tons of luck in the contest.

This is a very powerful poem with only a few words. The image denotes how trapped one can be. Feeling powerless can be crippling; "framed and boxed inside my shell". Agree, one's only way out is sabotage to break free.
Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards.

This is a Tanka Poetry Contest Entry rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures Aligned Perfectly.
Good luck with your contest Entry.

Yes, sometimes we do hinder ourselves, but the first step is to admit and realize that, as you do through your writing. I like the different text used for
feeling powerless
very affective.
Well done Mia.

    Thank you very much. I thought those words shouldb't be as bold as the others. I am glad to know it was affective.
