Prompt words for today are Wow, amplify, squabble, ferocious and vulnerability.
Wordless
I wish that I could wow you with putting prompts to rhyme,
but I seem not to be able to do so at this time.
“Amplify’s” been silenced and “squabble’s” fighting back,
while their potential author is revealed as just a hack.
It seems my old acuity at making words behave
has somehow deserted me, branding me a knave.
The truth that I am lacking in *vocabular agility
has left me slightly flummoxed with a new vulnerability.
(*For all I know, some lexicographer’s already dissed
my coinage of a brand new word the dictionaries missed.)
This poet, once ferocious, has been worn down by time.
and I’m thinking in my next life I might come back as a mime.
Prompt words for today are Wow, amplify, squabble, ferocious and vulnerability.
Must say I am worn out by trying to navigate the new block editor. I thought I had found a way around it but alas, they cut off that option and now I am a prisoner. Honk if you HATE the new editor!!!

It took me hours to format and publish a poem that formerly would have taken me ten minutes to format and publish.

As someone who struggles writing (and sometimes understanding) poetry I found that pretty wowful – is that a word? As for the block editor, honkety-honk!
Here’s mine!

It is now.. and, I’ve again found a way to use the classic editor, in spite of what they say. Yay.
