Who What When Where Why?

Who is the voice of the wind?

The ghost of a soldier listening for the elusive thunder of artillery as he sits beside a rank gutter in a ruined city.

What is an owl?

An ornery creature behaving as a generator of truth in a fog.

When will the soldier return home?

When the cowbird drops the acorn in a quahog while bursting into song.

Where does the river of imagination flow?

Into a grove of miracles where a mercurial cyclops consumes oysters and seaweed.

Why do the people cry?

They are longing for a meal of cheese and bread with truffle spread culminating in a dessert of pie baked from a combination of pureed pumpkin, salt, allspice, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, nutmeg, sugar, milk, and eggs.

April PAD Challenge/NaPoWriMo 2022 Day 4


Good morning. Here is your Soundtrack Inspiration for the fourth day of NaPoWriMo/April PAD Challenge.

Here is the link in case you can't see the player.


Here are the prompts that I used to create today's poem entitled "How to Write a Catch-Up Poem As Explained by a Superior Alien Overlord," which I dedicated to that master of speculative fiction in cool black and white tones, Rod Serling.

Write a (surrealist) poem in the form of a poetry prompt.

Write a catch-up poem.

I may not be back tomorrow. When I proved myself incapable of performing the necessary Sextonian mathematics to satisfy the alien overlord's poetic request, he asked me to bring him his favorite cookbook. Its title?
