My Day 3 poem is my response to the NaPoWriMo.net prompt, which is to create a Personal Universal Deck (details in the linked post) and then use it to write a poem. My poem is based on these words: ambivalence, petrichor, tumble (I also drew ‘shout’ and ‘dance’, but they didn’t fit the shape the poem was taking).
Dear Friday,
You didn’t tell me the Motaur liked ‘Karma Chameleon’…
Love,

It is National Poetry Writing Month again! My Day 1 poem is inspired by the animated video for Sun Ra Arkestra’s ‘Seductive Fantasy’, as directed by the prompt.
My warm-up for NaPoWriMo 2021 is this ekphrastic poem based on Egon Schiele’s Self-Portrait (1911).
Dear Wednesday,
As usual, March comes and goes, doesn’t bother to stick around…

I appreciate the sun, but how about turning up the heat a bit, eh?
