Hour 12: Trying for the Nines

At this half mark, my muses beg me

for respite; I drag them into

my web, forcing another

verse, with endless torment:

craft me similes,

make metaphors,

for this scop —

just one

  1. What a brilliant poem to mark your half, shirl – I just posted my nonet and can now rest, as I am a half-marathoner. Much luck to you and your muses as you write towards the full marathon! I love ‘for this scop’!!!
