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.

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, 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.

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
