The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: looking.
Mine:
The Master peered through a crack in his curtains
And spied only smoke and flames.
He began screaming for Junior and Bucky
But chaos swallowed their names.

The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: an entrance.
Mine:
While Junior and Bucky hurried to respond -
One feeling scared, one bolder -
Charlie strolled into the burning compound,
A shotgun on his shoulder

The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: the incursion.
I feel like things might be coming to a head in my yearlong poem...
Mine:
Buddy had hurled twenty Molotov cocktails
Over the hideout's ramparts
Before blowing apart the gates and rolling
In to deal with its upstarts

The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: smoke.
We're in Kamloops for the weekend, as Kat's family on her mom's side is gathering to remember her grandfather who recently passed away. She wasn't especially close to him, so it's mostly a chance to visit with family.
The boys, in particular, enjoyed playing with their cousins today, though Natalie and her sisters stayed home with their mom. So it was mostly boy cousins, for a change.
Mine:
The Master was sleeping fitfully that night,
Haunted by vivid nightmares.
So when he woke to the smell of smoke he was
Not sure it was really there
