DAY TWENTY-FOUR

SEED SUCKERS

Talking to the nattering mind thought chatter battering the soul They say it's good to talk but mad to answer yourself back but what do they know Doktir Q Doktir Zee Doktir who? Nairobi Ian Biro Eternity Tiny Tree Just when you think it's all over it starts again the same thoughts the same pain and of course the same insane old nameless names Why do they do that? They must think - sorry they don't think - I forgot they haven't got a brain that works like that Remember what we said many moons ago? The anagram of Eden is need Success is all we need to succeed There's a lot of seed suckers out there trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the proverbial what's his name? Thingy? Talking to the nattering mind thought chatter battering the soul They say it's good to talk but mad to answer yourself back but what do they know...

LOGICAL DITTOES

Letters of condolence are in the post

Oust et est sans le twain shall meet

Gentlemen please it’s oh so important

Inglenook fireplace and all of that jazz

Clouting the ball way into the distance

Azerbaijani and pigeons in pies

Lying about his guilt and still cheating

Dirty past midnight something

Important to remember your manners

The distance is vast between east and west

Toolkits for something midnight past dirty

Oust houses these days are mainly in Kent

Eating disorders and off with their heads out

Spanners and wrenches and all of your tools

NaPoWriMo 2013
Day One

THIS BUGLER
He sits there waiting what for he knows not
not for the first time it won't be the last
last night was of course a little bit worse
worse than he could ever have imagined
imagination is where it's all at

All at sea perhaps please don't rock the boat
boating lake blues like you can't imagine
imagination is where it's all at
at the risk of of of repetition
repeat this anagram if you dare to

Two million renters can't be wrong can they
they can't this bugler he sits there waiting

NaPoWriMo 2011 Day Seven

The words at 3WW this week are:
Adamant, Fabricate, and Peculiar.

Also posted to Writer's Island.
Here's mine:

A CRAPPA

Adamant, fabricate, peculiar.
Could be an anagram of:
Republican face
at Adami Art.
Perhaps or maybe:
Paint it a flame-red?
A Cuba car!

NaPoWriMo 2010 Day 12

NAPOWRIMO 2010 DAY 12
SECRET CODES
We are more than one-third through NaPoWriMo. If you feel like you’ve started to make things up (two parts desperation, one part coffee grinds), then Carolee Sherwood’s prompt for Day 12 will play into your hand. Make up a secret code. Begin by writing a few nonsense sentences, like “The raindrops tap out a cry for help” or “The dandelions are saying all at once, ‘You are overwhelmed.’” The formula is easy: come up with a message and assign it to something unlikely. Remember, of course, that inanimate objects can speak and that signs and symbols may be nonverbal. Once you have a few sentences, select the one that is most intriguing to you and use it to start a poem.

HERE'S MINE:
This prompt was right up my street! I love secret codes and messages and riddles and anagrams. I think I strayed from Carolee's prompt, but it was the prompt that got me to write this. So:

EATING DAFF'S
Emit the tin age man drank all the gin
ate all the food and then swallowed
the gate. In the garden the daffodils
in bloom are eating all the daisies
now the daisies are eating daff's for lunch.
Ganite, the food agent I met Monday
declared it an eating disorder,
and said: But don't get in a pickle
fret not or the eating daff's may
fear that they will be beaten
soon, how would you unscramble this?
