It is Day 30 and thank you to everyone who has read the pieces I've made this month. The main site quote for today was to write a Cento but, as someone, who is not a form fan I'm going to take the spirit of it for something else.
Today I want you to find a quote- be it from a song, a poem, a book, a film - and use that as an epitaph for the piece you write. For mine, I'm choosing a line from the Billy Joel song "Summer, Highland Falls"
Song of Isolation
"And I believe there is a time for meditation
in cathedrals of our own."
And here we begin our rituals;
of dressing;
of taking tea.
slow sleepwalk to hymn
of computer fans -
birdsong on high march wind.
Peace in mundanity;
thin sheen of the familiar
to mask a clawing despair.
