Down Becomes Up

by Ogden


Septolet Poem (!4 words in 2 stanzas) Light verse on a serious issue. Please see Author Note below.


Hostile Russia,
And that evil
North Korea,

Soon Palsy-walsy,
due to
President to be-a?




Septolet writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt
Write a septolet.
The septolet has fourteen words. It is broken between two stanzas that make up the fourteen words. Each stanza can have seven words each but that is not a requirement. Both stanzas deal with the same thought and create a picture.

Example
Heart Song
You play me
like
a violin

One caress,
heartstrings sing
sweet melody
of love
- written by ~Dovey


NOTE
With our future president flirting with Russia, and having praised the North Korean dictator, Kim Jong-un for his brutality in suppressing dissension, and only recently stating his intentions to form alliances with our enemies, only the ouiji board can foretell our future. But, as we know, the ouiji board also lies.
Pays one point and 2 member cents.
