Richard Lamoureux Poet Verse

Randomling Doorways

Doors one

My thoughts wander
moving from one door to the next
I try my best
Desperately wanting 
to make my escape

Doors two

When I opened my door
you were the last person
I mean the very last person 
I expected to see
Please take your foot out of my door
we have nothing to talk about

Doors Three

I have studied for years
the art of making a deal
many hours in front of a screen
"I'll take what's behind door number two!"
ZONK..................so sad :0(


For Mary Oliver Rotman's Randomling contest.
I hope I got the form right. Either way I had fun.

Charlotte Puddifoot August 29, 2015 at 3:46 PM the title of this one intrigued me; i like poems like this that give different angles on a single subject; the form is an interesting one, but i haven't heard of it before...thanks for your comment on my walkabout poem, it pleased me because i was aiming for an hallucinatory feel Richard Lamoureux August 29, 2015 at 5:20 PM You succeeded! I read it to my wife, it was very impactful.

Casarah Nance August 17, 2015 at 5:33 PM Haha, I loved that show "Let's Make A Deal" I enjoyed how all your ramblings fit together, you are awesome :) Richard Lamoureux August 29, 2015 at 5:20 PM Thanks Casarah. Hugs Rick.

Tim Smith August 17, 2015 at 8:34 AM I like these little snipits Richard Richard Lamoureux August 17, 2015 at 2:48 PM Thanks Tim, I thought I would give it a go.

Andrea Dietrich August 16, 2015 at 10:47 AM Ooops, I ran out of space!! Anyway, here is what I wanted to say at the end of that last comment: I enjoyed these, and am pleased to learn that such a skilled writer as yourself is a VIRGO!! Richard Lamoureux August 17, 2015 at 2:51 PM You are kind Andrea, it seems I am in very talented company!

Andrea Dietrich August 16, 2015 at 10:47 AM Richard, your guess is as good as mine on how to do the contest. I have an idea (I think anything under 7 lines or so is good, just so it's not a limerick) I am just confused by what topics she might prefer and whether she wants all one topic or not. I have mine ready to post, eventually. Mine are rhyming types. I think it does not matter and i hope we can do a mixture of forms. I guess we will all find out when she judges. Richard Lamoureux August 17, 2015 at 2:50 PM I just went with what came from my thoughts, righr or wrong it is what it is. Thanks for visiting.

Paul Callus August 16, 2015 at 9:53 AM I think you have caught the true spirit of this form, Richard. The door topic makes for lovely random writes, something you might wish to elaborate on later on. // paul Richard Lamoureux August 17, 2015 at 2:52 PM Who knows Paul , I may come back to them. Thanks for stopping by to read them.
