Two train of thoughts have erupted into my thinking lately. What has caused them or brought them to surface I haven't yet deciphered... perhaps I don't want to.:))
As I share the lines swirling within my mind here, I want you to create a poem using one or the other trains of thought.
Be creative, give it some serious thought and most of all... have fun with it.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
First Thought:
Pimps, prostitutes and bums
all misfits
more or less
just so much waste material
thrown out casually
at one of the side doors
of the world
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Second Thought:
Everything loose in the world
seems to drift toward the sea
and usually winds up on
the beach somewhere...
Just follow rules of decency here and be kind to one another.
