April PAD Challenge: Day 26
Posted by Robert
For today's prompt, I want you to write a poem involving miscommunication. It can be miscommunication between two people or misinterpretation of some sort. I will leave it up to you guys to deal with it however you want.
Here is my attempt for the day:
"If Shakespeare taught us anything, it's that it doesn't take much to flip a picture upside down"
"Can you smash the yellow jacket for me," she asks. He says, "What's wrong with your birthday present? I saved to buy it after you said you wanted it." He pushes her off him. Just seconds ago, they were talking about the fools who think they're rushing things. "Really? You're an idiot," she says, "I was just asking a question." He clenches his fists and says, "And now you're calling me names, too." "Listen: I wasn't talking about my yellow jacket but that bee which, like our happy moment, has now wandered off never to return." Poetry Challenge 2009 | Poetry Prompts
