I Can’t Stanza Pain – 17th July 2025

Shared with dVerse Quadrille #227 – turn

My enforcer,
my metre maid
took a turn for the verse.

Free and blank cheques,
with a ‘haiku later, alligator’

When Rabbie rises, I reach
for my sonnet sunscreen;

Massaging my iambic pent-up anger
with all my opposable puns,

I will limerick my wounds.
