Costa Challenge (Pleiade)

butterball

blind to my
bulging belly as I
burrow through drawers of
bulky winter clothes
bypassing the evil
bikini which I thought I
buried out of sight

I saw this challenge the other day and started on something, but ran out of time to get anything out of it (blasted school!). This is a hard form, but you did well with it. It's a funny little piece, I like it.

Happy Writings.

As I told costa, I don't care for Anderson's change to the rules of a Pleiade Poem. This was very well done: humor, followed the rules, fast paced. Great write!

This is pretty funny stuff. I've bypassed the whole 'hiding the bikini' predicament by NEVER owning one. Bulky winter clothes are great, even when its 90 degrees outside.

Best Wishes,Jenn
