It's a well deserved fallow week from @alanparrywriter.co.uk with no #PoemsAbout. Thanks to Mike, @zoomburst.substack.com for #OddFriday #PoemsOn #OpportunityKnocks
Inspired by 'ob portum veniens' and veni vidi, vici. Just about all the Latin I remember from many decades ago!
#PoemsAbout #EarnTheRight
I'm on holiday in the place of my birth and thought there would be time for composition - I went for serious and philosophical but it did not earn the right.
What to do on a Saturday morning but make a cover for my notebooks. I might go back to the workshop and make version two.
#PoemsAbout #BearingWitness
America has never been one entity except in myth, and democracy has always been the great experiment imperfectly tried, but these are my thoughts on my country. For now it's the only one I have.
This was in the Poems for Protest anthology from Rough Diamond last winter.
This week's prompt from @alanparrywriter.co.uk @thebrokenspine.co.uk #PoemsAbout #WrongBody. So a testamentary piece of art, life changing surgery in the family and three generations in one home helped to frame this offering.

I will put a reading or link in the comments.
