SHORT STORY slam week 154, poetry form week 49, humor week 49
Random thoughts that run through my mind...
Who made up the word chimed?
I often ponder where the names of things come from...
Like who named the thumb?
Who decided the unintelligent were dumb?
Who was the first person to say shit & coined it a bad word?
Some objects names are quite absurd
Who had the power to say “now this thing is a definitely a pillow”
then sat under a tree & called it a weeping willow
I could go on & on about things I don’t understand....

WHY ARE VEGETABLES CANNED?
PS: a free verse is a free flow of thoughts that pazzle you, yet those things sit
as facts which make life accessible

poetry form week 42, Minute poem
the minute poem, or tiny rhyming lyric,
is a good for of expression that sings out nicely,
The rules are rather simple:
- 3 quatrains (or 4-line stanzas)
- 8 syllables in the first line of each stanza
- 4 syllables in the remaining lines of each stanza
- rhyme scheme: aabb/ccdd/eeff
- written in strict iambic meter
example of Minute poem
"inches of life span"
we do count our days inches by inches
from Sunday to Saturday
we trust our faith
we invent hour glass in awesome accuracy
Monday is a day to begin working
either as a queen
or as a king
to the magical kingdom of acceleration of wit written
in case, say, there maybe a vacation
when we fly high
to expand our unfulfilled dreams
magic could upgrade our brain
