The prompt was to make a song but I went in another direction and made a video poem.

And then later, grabbed the audio and made a song of loops and effects.

Today’s prompt for DS106 Daily Create was to write a poem for John Johnston, so I visited his microblog and used some of his posts for inspiration for four short poems.

Shadows, spun
and spinning, a glimpse
of wonder, coming undone
in an afternoon pause

A butterfly moment,
with tired wings at rest,
standing like a painting
on a leaf of green

Curating a life in links –
a visit here and a word there –
places to stop and wander into
while the world shuffles by

An observation, from afield:
we are all but subjects in a social experiment –
some of us, swirling eddies
in the ripples where we can write

The prompt for the morning at DS106 Daily Create centered on the Semicolon and how it used. I decided to write a poem about the punctuation.

Peace; Really.
