Lifes' Tapestry Poet Free verse

Game On

The next challenge is set..  
hhmmmphh game on
Enter contests he says.

But they're boring by the third attempt at rhyme
And my mind cannot keep time. 
Nor does it read all the bits you must master 
and err is prevalent if you review my disaster

Summer is not my flavour 
as autumn I am predisposed...
but to choose one of plenty  
I cannot be told.

No! He says, that is not the task.
Choosing one is too easy
For the mind that you grasp
Enter all .. ALL!

Holy crap are you mad!

Its the challenge I've set 
Now begone.

What a ratbag!

Irked, quite assuredly 
I lay there and pondered
Is he truly serious I wondered?

As i fought with myself on anothers ideas
I perused all the lists rather than smack his ears.

And binary became the attraction so clear 
that i dragged my sorry butt out of bed 
and now i am here.

White Wolf October 23, 2018 at 3:27 PM You're a classic! If only you didn't have that confounded job! Lucky you don't need sleep, lol... Lifes' Tapestry October 23, 2018 at 4:20 PM 4hrs of debates and speeches, and 1 hour of a film. Man, I do not know how I am to cope sitting on my A S S all day..

Chris Green October 23, 2018 at 10:44 AM Seems you have been challenged a lot lately and from what I can see, you have met each one head on or dove in feet first or something like that. At least it looks that way to me, but I have been wrong before and quite possibly am again. But I'm not wrong about this piece or your poetry in general. It is all very creative and cool. Lifes' Tapestry October 24, 2018 at 12:19 AM Rest assured, I asked for it! Content.
