Safety in Numbers
It might beseem the patriarch to forego actions radical,
forsaking them for pastimes more blandly mathematical.
Discourse over Pi and coffee a safer course, by far,
than plotting revolution at a local bar.
That there’s safety in numbers is a much-repeated platitude
much favored over taking risks with a subversive attitude.
Prompt words today are radical, patriarch, beseem and coffee. Image by Jeswin Thomas on Unsplash, used with permission.

OMG – all those words are like SCRABBLE~!
Oh me,,

wine or tea,,

stop with three,,
or I try to flee,,
must not lie,,
may even die,,
so do not try,,
to let it go by,,
if we have pi~!

Ha. Yes, sometimes the prompts are a bit like playing scrabble when you’ve already been given the words to play.
