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, then that is okay, too. We've even
been so generous to accept poets from other parts of the USA and the
entire country of Canada!

(OK, these aren't beans, they're Skittles, but you get the point.)
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 or short story in the comments section and hit post. You
may not immediately see your post, but it is there under the "Comments"
section. You may need to click on "Comments" to see your poem. It is
there on another page.

Being Right
ReplyDeleteAs blind Teresias must surely know
There is no joy in always being right
The hapless king has taken father's life
And slept in his own mother's marriage bed
Longing for the luxury of error
No consolation comes from bitter truths
