Napowrimo Day 27

 We are in the home stretch now!

Official Prompt:
Today, begin by reading Bernadette Mayer’s poem “The Lobelias of Fear.” Now write your own poem titled “The ________ of ________,” where the first blank is a very particular kind of plant or animal, and the second blank is an abstract noun. The poem should contain at least one simile that plays on double meanings or otherwise doesn’t quite make “sense,” and describe things or beings from very different times or places as co-existing in the same space.

My Prompt:
Using a short form of your choice, such as a halibun or tanka, write a series consisting of the chosen form that goes through the phases of the moon. Lucky Dip: Book
