Six Word Saturday

For Six Word Saturday:

Lollygagging on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Word List Challenge - City Streets

This poem is just the result of playing with a word list challenge over at Apollo Blessed.  The words were:
Partake

Delve
Nourish
Pinnacle
Devour
Whole
Sentiment
Under
I decided to try using them at the beginning of each line....just kind of experimenting.  :)

Under the street signs
Devoured by city’s sounds
Whole tribes at war
Nourished by noise, never
Partaking of peace or
Sentiment’s sweet song
Delving into desolation to
Pinnacle of poverty’s passion

Yum!

For Sunday Scribblings prompt #265 - Cake

I baked me a cake and gave a big shout
Because I had left all the calories out

I’ll eat the whole thing and still remain thin
Can you imagine how that makes me grin?

I hid it from view, this one I’d hoard,
But this lovely cake had the taste of cardboard.

So into the trash it went with a clunk

Now get the real cake and cut me a chunk!

the world is a better place

justice has been done

Chronic depression

episodes of mania

moods of madness like

blindly walking a tightrope

a balancing act
