Just a quick post – haha I always end up writing a long one when I say that. (But… try try again :)):
I have not counted words
That is totally absurd
Not usual for me
I’ve gone word-count awol it seems
I’ve been writing poetry
entirely based on whimsy
it feels so darned good to me
βIike abbreviating icebergs, see?
So failing NaNo rocks
since in the failing, I’ve removed other blocks.
I feel I’ve delighted in good friends!
What a beautiful and wild-flung end.
To you, fellow word-smiths,
my most heartfelt gratitude I send. β€οΈ
Your words shake me and make me
Your kindness slakes me and unbreaks me
The colours outside now call, so free:
It’s fall! It’s fall! πππ₯π€
Let’s run outside and rake the leaves!
.

Love,
xo Nadine π·
(And thanks
for experiencing NaNo, with me.
you’ve brought me all and any joy, here seen. :))
Great piece π

Hehehehe welcome to poetry.. And it’s addictive… but a good one, I love it. With poetry one freely expresses themselves without directly offending anyone ππππ so you’re safe.

Ah thank you dear Joseph. You are the Josephian master of your own special forms of it, ones I always love to read, and even better, *see* — in your awesome performance videos. It is addictive, that’s for sure, as for not offending anyone, all one can do is hope for the best I suppose, just like in any other kind of writing π¬π§πππβ―οΈπ

Charlie, I adore this comment. Coming from the poet laureate of particulate linguiverse, I feel especially honoured… and this video!!! Did you know, I channel Weird Al’s songstyle most days? I’m always impromptuing new lyrics to old tunes, especially when with the kids, hehe. Also, I think I need that outfit of the first woman in the vid lol – so awesome and perfect for the holiday season, too π
Thanks Charlie π€xoxo
