The exercise:

Write a four line poem about: refocusing.

Well, the refocus is on getting the narrator back on track rather than explicitly calling it out... but I think you can see how the prompt has inspired the verse :)

Refocusing
“This is good fortune, I’ll use these for crime,”
The cartographer says, side-eyeing my knives.
I must drive off in a hurry, I’m wasting my time
So the map-maker goes back to his map of St. Ives.

Greg - that was certainly the hope, at any rate :)

Well, the cartographer seems fully on board with the plan, so that's... good?
