Seren Roberts Poet Triolet

Close the Zip - Zeugma Contest

ran the bath and fingers through my hair
I buttoned my blouse and my lip
no longer in love, no longer care
ran the bath and fingers through my hair
wanted to soak away hurt not talk and swear
needed to relax my heart and close the zip
ran the bath and fingers through my hair
I buttoned my blouse and my lip




Penned 24August 2014

Zeugma's

ran the bath and fingers through my hair
I buttoned my blouse and my lip.

Dr. Upma A. Sharma August 24, 2014 at 11:12 AM Wow that's brilliant n witty Seren! Great work!

Casarah Nance August 24, 2014 at 6:41 AM Isn't it clever how these zeugma's work. It makes your mind break down the sentence structure, enjoyable to read, like unworking a puzzle to see the picture. Best of luck to ya in the contest, a great entry. Seren Roberts August 24, 2014 at 8:19 AM Thanks Casarah wasn't easy to think of something. Seren
