THE CHARGE OF THE FLING BRIGADE

Through the valley of cyberlife rode the two hundred
Friday Fling challenges for all poetic types.
Thinking and feeling and typing it out,
expressing deep joys and great sorrows and gripes.

Recession, depression, impressions, dissentions.
Harmonies, destinies, festering agonies.
Aspirations, disinclinations, prevarications.
Ecstasies, vagaries, theories Pythagorese.

Everything human and anthropomorphic,
naturalistic and extraterrestrial,
in wording anathema to astigmatic,
engraved forever in some realm celestial.

Here’s to the warm souls who make it all happen,
who come by to write and to see and be seen.
Handwriting dramas to smiles and some clappin.’
Diverse individuals sharing a scene.
