While you were gone… to be on TV

So, here are the Wednesday prompts again, from PA. After the overall “gone-ness” of November literary abandon, both towards NOVPAD and NaNoWriMo, here we come to relax a bit, just in time for the holiday hectic boom.

Empty

Wednesday Poetry Prompt 141 – Poetic Asides, Robert Brewer

Back in town.

Filling the pretentious sway

Turns around.

*

Belief -

So arbitrarily used

So randomly applied

I’m asking for relief

from all fake belief

makes them

glad

that

they are

politicians.

Zombies

are cute

Apart from that
