Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
The late dodo and the doornail
(both as dead as can ever be)
having decided to set sail
upon the Dead Sea, fittingly,
laid a course for the utter East,
one last time to see the sunrise,
only to meet Aristophanes,
together to fly through the skies.
Line count: 8
Rhymed ababcdcd
For Express It In Eight, 05.28.22
Prompt: Dead as a doornail.
