Love,

Tag—you’re it (a poem)
The parts of the movie I saw before falling asleep because it was late and I was tired (a poem)
It is a new month, meaning time to come up with a new challenge. After looking at a few different things, I settled upon the shadorma, a six-line form with a syllable count of 3/5/3/3/7/5. My initial effort using this form is an ekphrastic poem, inspired by the Richard Lester version of The Three Musketeers.
