The exercise:

Write a four line poem about: altering course.

Mine:

It was a bigger blast than Buddy had planned
(The house was now a crater)
So it decided it was a fine time to
Head south of the equator.

  1. I find myself a little too much amused that Buddy overdid the explosion unintentionally :) Still, I'm sure he meant well (somehow) and it's nice to see that he's fleeing the country and going to cause mayhem elsewhere. I wonder what his inventor will think when he learns of the crater?

    Altering course
    Adjust its course and intercept before
    This robot can infect our world with things
    That don’t belong here. He must find this sword
    Of gold of which your tarot cards foretold.”

    [If that looks a little odd to a new reader, it's a direct follow-up from last Sunday's post and you probably need to read them together]

  2. Greg - yeah, I'm starting to have a lot of fun with this ridiculous attempt at a yearlong poem...

    Ah, well handled, sir. I'm glad this prompt was a little more workable than last week's :)
