Speaking in Forms


my gut’s opinion
warred with my love sick pining
surviving myself

(Senryƫ)

Fame
shines with
bright artificial light
in the valley of
narcissism.

(Elfchen)

A thesaurus

is a devilish
device

to soften maleficence
by the innocuous choice of ill.

(Cherita)

In my haste and my need a nap eyes I failed to follow the prompts instructions. I shall try again and post on Tuesday.

I love them all, you rebel woman! But the elfchen stuck to my heart the hardest. I need to stop watching the news.

This is fine for me, Susie. Please leave it be and mend your references. I like it as is, my vote.
I also was sleepy but wrote sitting on the edge of my bed. I even figured out how to put a picture on with the smart phone. I did a little 'tune-up' work on it this morning.
I too forgot to find two prompts but then when I looked there were two words for my theme, sort of like 'cause and effect'. So I just now googled them and used googles finds page for linking to the prompt word.
I might get a bad grade but It's done now. (my picture was taken in South America on January 10, 2016. Later I will figure out where I was then.

Sod the instruction, Susie, I enjoyed all three of them! The senryu kind of sparkled at me, though, so it stood out for me. I like the phrase ‘the valley of narcissism’.

Well, I think you still succeeded quite well! These are truly clever.

I'm glad you didn't, because now I have the delight of reading three different but wonderfully done pieces. It's hard to decide which one I like best.
