memory of menopausal aunt road raging
at unaware defenseless drivers
holy guacamole! eager tongue reaching
to taste zestfully smooth inspiration
aghastly entangled gordian knot yielding
only to sharpened double-edged entendre
first thoughts bright butterfly winging
free ’til inner editor second-guesses.net
crystalline flute trio recital melting
winter slushy to wild refreshing rivulets
jealously tuxedoed orcas screaming
bloody murder at deaf penguins
hysterical moment when ulysses s. granting
amused moose mousse “pre-approval”
…in chocolate denim with shot of espresso, of course.

I love your take on the prompt…that creative urge is just about impossible to resist.

Cool write and use of words.

…in chocolate denim with shot of espresso, of course…..haha… there can’t be enough espresso in the world..smiles… a fun write…and never lose that creative urge..

I think words are your playthings, and this is a good group to be in for that.

Great piece! I, too, don’t belong in any style and would also call myself a fledgling poet, but it’s a grand ride, ain’t it?

Obviously the shop that rents Orca tuxedos would be much more expensive that the tiny place that deals with penguin tuxes. The fun you had with the prompt is infectious, thanks.
