Poetically Prompted [E] Fifth go around on Promptly Poetry Challenge |
Greetings, I’m here again for I Write in 2024… This is harder to review than your usual items, for sure. A mere thirteen words, all of which are palindromes, strung together in single lines which at first glance looks like a list and nothing more. I feel funny trying to ascribe meaning to a casual poem of this sort, but I suppose that’s what poetry exists for, to reflect the meaning one wants to pour into what they see. First the time is revealed: high noon, which in the summertime is incredibly hot. The next three words seem to connect together, “deified pop solos;” it reminds me of the music I listen to on a summer’s day. The rest of the words give me the impression of a sunset or sunrise, something peeking over the horizon and seeing something surprising - wow! I’m tempted to respond in kind, with a palindromatic review, but I don’t know how I’d go about doing that… a nut for a jar of tuna, anyone? That’s a phrase I learned from the Scroll games, actually. I once saw it illustrated on a game box (TacoCat!) and it was so cute, a squirrel and a shark… I digress. Your poem is ingenious, creative, and allows room for the imagination. I can’t think of anything to suggest about it because it’s not really expected to be taken too seriously. Formatting is good, and the prompt is explained. Take care, thanks for sharing, and keep writing My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
