It’s hour nine and this prompt just sucks<\/p>\n

5 words out of ten?<\/p>\n

But all ten words are made of meh<\/p>\n

So I guess I’ll go my way again<\/p>\n

I’ll ramble about nothing<\/p>\n

Until a poem just appears<\/p>\n

At least I’ll make the deadline<\/p>\n

Before the deadline disappears<\/p>\n

Beet, tremor, and jacket<\/p>\n

Are three words that they list<\/p>\n

And then there’s also elbow<\/p>\n

That’s 4, what have I missed?<\/p>\n

Oh, yes, let’s try the bayou<\/p>\n

With cinnamon and elk<\/p>\n

Where did they come up with this?!<\/p>\n

It’s like mad libs from the shelf<\/p>\n

None of it makes any sense<\/p>\n

It’s a bucket full of holes<\/p>\n

It’s like a maze without a start<\/p>\n

Or a play without the roles<\/p>\n

A carport with no canopy<\/p>\n

A lightbulb without light<\/p>\n

But look, I got all 10 words in<\/p>\n

So I guess I won this fight.<\/p>\n
