Tonight I hosted a prompt workshop where five poets and I wrote to random prompts supplied by glow-in-the-dice. We had enough time to write eight poems to the following prompts: family, intellect, Taurus or amethyst or February, Parade Amoureuse, words starting with KO, Earth, thick promotion motion and sober.
For the words starting with KO prompt, I chose to write about Kokopelli.
Dance through your abandoned village,
your family dead
from blankets
or gunpowder
or alcohol.
Play your pipe and dance
while the pale invaders
turn your land
into mini-malls
and subdivisions
and you into a registered trademark.
Thank you to my fellow prompt poets. We got some good work done tonight!
