For this Two-for-Tuesday prompt from Robert Lee Brewer’s Write Better Poetry blog:
Write a believe poem and/or…
Write a don’t believe poem.
Sonnet — April 27
I believe the earth is flat
because shape is trivial
to me and the pines straining
towards the sun.
A sun which loops around us
every day— me, the pines
and that squirrel teasing
Moriarty from a branch.
Tomorrow the squirrel will hunt for nuts
and the pines will hope for rain.
Doesn’t matter whether we’re clinging
to a globe or pressed on a pancake,
I’ll write another poem
just because it’s April.
Bartholomew Barker, Poet 
HA!
I hope Moriarty doesn’t knock anything important off the edge.

I can’t imagine April without a poem-a-day anymore.

Haha, yeah. I personally didn’t expect to have much content. Thought I’d post three or four pieces but guess once you get started the content is just there waiting to be written.

Once you get started it’s hard to stop. Poetry is a nasty habit.
