Quadrille Monday

Whimzygizmo’s prompt for today’s Quadrille (a poem of exactly 44 words) at dVerse Poets Pub is “Friday.” For an extra challenge, I used my new The Artist Magnetic Poetry Kit (assoc link). I added the word Friday with part of a label sticker on one of the magnets. It was a very different Quadrille experience. Forty-four words is a lot when you’ve only got two hundred to choose from and you’re searching through them. Here’s what I came up with:

  1. A clever combination of prompt and magnetic poetry kit, Maria! I love the alliterative phrases ‘wildly writing’ and miasma of movement’ and the line: ‘how is this surreal mess music’.

  2. Oh, I LOVE this. I may have to get my favorite magnetic poetry site back in the mix! Wonderful!

    This last line is SO good:

    “how is this surreal mess music?”
    A good life question, really. Cuz it’s both. 😉
