Advance
with loud whispers,
ask with rude courtesy
and slip a coffee-stained number

Excellent Dove!

I'm so glad you've joined.
This one is piercing - I love it!

You've left a great line to start on too.
I'm supprised I get the opportunity.



To me
the hand jester
is a string-less puppet
gone amuck; a show without plot,
nonsense.

Hi Michelle, sun.gif

I have just found this thread and think it is great fun. Not sure I've got the gist yet, but I'll have a try. This happen two days ago.

All hands to the rescue
Don’t panic little one. Oh no!

Also, a game seems to have developed to use the last 2 sylls of the prev post to start the new one.

in line, creased and creaseless
ready now to rock and roll .... and
be wrecked

Love
Alan

Dear Grace

Like it !

Sorry about the "wrecked", I had failed to consider those following on.

Be wrecked,
and be wretched,
p'raps even be wasted,
my boy, and you will have tasted
the dregs .....

How's that to follow LOL ?

Love
Alan

Hey there Alan,

Not very inspired. I still have to get the hang of this:

The dregs
In the bottle
Like the mulled remnants of
my past hedonistic heydays…
I WISH


Next please   Jester.gif

Dear Grace

If this one is not inspired, then I look forward to those that are. This had me LOL !

I wish
that a cinquain
were as easy to write
as a Shakespearian sonnet
dashed off !

Love
Alan

Hello again Alan  :knight:

Aah! Now you're talking. MY HERO (Shakespeare that is.)    :jester:

Dashed off
straight from the quill
to the parchment, ink-flecked.
Will’s impatient, teeming brain
flying

Hi Grace,
that's an excellent cinquain.

These are so addicting, aren't they?   grinning.gif

of down, follow instinct’s current,
