    A pantoum

    I recall that I could not process
    It was something past numbness
    But no mere denial, for I could see
    Mechanically, I phoned New Jersey

    Beyond capacity to comprehend
    Mechanically, I phoned New Jersey
    We're fine, my father said to me

    W3 poetry prompt

    For this week’s W3, Reena invites us to write a pantoum.

    d’Verse Open Link Night

    I’m sharing this for OLN at d’Verse.

    Let’s write poetry together!

    When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.

    Ben Harper (b. 1969)

    Would you like to create poetry with me and have a completed poem of yours featured here at the Skeptic’s Kaddish? I am very excited to have launched the ‘Poetry Partners’ initiative and am looking forward to meeting and creating with you… Check it out!
