This blog is devoted to a select group of poets. We're starting with poets from the Ann Arbor area, but, hey, if you're from Detroit, Grand Rapids, Saginaw or the Upper Peninsula than that is okay, too.
Our goal is to provide you with a prompt every day from which you are to garner inspiration and submit a poem. How to submit will be very easy. Just put your poem in the comments section and hit post. It may take a while for it to actually post as either Mike Fedel or I (your blog hosts) may need to approve the content before it gets posted. This will probably change in the future, but that's the way it is now.
So, here's today's prompt: Tardis
For the few people left on earth who have never watched the BBC TV series, Dr. Who, just Google "Tardis" and you will find lots of information about it.
So type away. This is a great day--your first prompt.
TARDIS
ReplyDeleteMy ex-husband told me about Time Lords and
The great time/space engine left behind
Disguised as an innocent phone booth
That when you entered a Tardis
You stepped out of your reality
Into another
So much unexplained phenomena
Mysteries that only the select Lords are privy to
Sadly in the case of our marriage
We never stumbled upon this machine
Or if we did
We never recognized it
Leaving us sadly in a dimensional loop
Whereby we could only leave by ending it

ReplyDeletePortable.
Quite portable actually.
Time and space mean nothing.
This could be a good thing.
Or not.
We'll see.
