The Words – 15th April 2026

only a notebook
a smooth-flowing ball-tipped pen
soon, the words will come

or, in lieu of that
any old device will do
the words must emerge

a scrap of paper…
(from one mind to another)
…even a whisper

A senryu chain written fro GloPoWriMo Day 14:
write a poem that bridges (whether smoothly or not) the seeming divide between poetry and technological advances.

Today’s Daily Stoic poem:

Pay Your Taxes

Pay your taxes gladly
Never hope for exemption
You are not special, sadly
To fight is just pretension
