Prompt ... A shape
A heart shape is iconic
done to death
love and kisses
A square is for
a crewcut with heavy
black framed spectacles
playing Dave Brubeck
now known as the nerd
I like the elusive spiral
a spiral of white smoke
wafting through keyholes
under doors around dark whispers
in the Vatican tickling the
new Pope's ears getting up
the losing Cardinals'
noses then emerging with
flocks of white doves
to the roar of the crowd
a very distant echo from
the days of the Colosseum
when this group would have
provided tasty morsels
for the Lion King
Cecil B De Mille looks
on making notes
Hi Rall,
ReplyDeleteLots of imagery here. I particularly like the antics of the spiral of smoke. Hopefully, none of your readers will be Brubeck fans!
Quite fascinating..I feel like I've just gone down the rabbit hole...
ReplyDeleteDerrick,to my knowledge my two other readers are not jazz fans.I am.
