For today’s prompt, write a We Blank poem.
We drink
When we’re not inspired
because the pinot noir
is also blocked
We light a candle
the three of us
for atmosphere
The flame flickers
but doesn’t have a clue
either so we look
From poet to wine
wine to fire
fire back to poet
Some nights the moon
is hidden by clouds
