Aw, why not keep going early?

So... I did an iconograph.  Because, why not?

NaPoWriMo is approaching

Just creating a tag to stick (hopefully) daily poems on for NaPoWriMo.  I can do this.  Yup. Done it before.

Once.

Well, I did literally just write sixteen poems in two hours (wrote the instructions for 16 kinds of short forms in verse), but that was at work, so it doesn't really count.

I haven't made a real habit of poetry for about four years.  Let's see how it goes...

Heh, I'm starting a little early.  Just wrote a virelai to fill out a chapbook, and I kind of love it.

Ooh, Shiny!

What was I thinking, just moments ago?

I lost the thread as it sped to and fro!

How was I trav'ling and where would I go?

And people around me are staring...

Other folks keep to their topics, I know

They can stay steady and manage the flow

But me? I'm constantly erring!

I grab shiny things like a raven or crow

No, that's a magpie, they're all corvids, though...

Oh, blast, now I'm off again, raring!

Thoughts won't stay in order, above or below

I hope I can cover it, so it won't show

But inside, I'm kind of despairing.

What was I thinking, just moments ago?

I lost the thread as it sped to and fro!

How was I trav'ling and where would I go?
