joy of giving senryu
- Breast Giving Life by Pip Gerard
joy of giving senryu
when destiny guides
it is never sacrifice
to be most giving
to be most giving
joy shifts into highest gear
play the game solo
play the game solo
you proliferate pure joy
when destiny guides

Snob Limerick
- Cup with Darjeeling Tea
Snob Limerick
A Bachelor who had a degree
Was a snob you could plainly see.
Girls found him egocentric
when he played the eccentric,
and sipped only Darjeeling Tea.

gustatory impulsive
artistic kisses

focalized tongue
perfectionated
appertained chattel
steered daily
soothing, changing, disengaging
dovetailed shapes

and worrisome intangible ontologies
deliberately she cracks

Today’s prompt was to “praise of a present-day hero, someone who has made a difference in your own life.” I always did like My Fair Lady and the concept of creating your own perfect love. I create my characters in my fiction with this ubermensch in mind. Thus this is to Professor Higgins, or is it to George B. Shaw? Or is it to a Venusian statue? This is poetry…so you may interpret as you please.
