A Big Bird Tweeting

Because we've been swathed in silence for far too long.

Prime fears

fed by quiet

The Angel dries our tears 

whispering good news in our ears

We riot

A cinquain for the cast and crew screening comment Michael made.

Slake our thirst in this drought, angel!!

hello?

Where did you go?

Fading now, soft & slow

Were you a fuse destined to blow?

Hello?

[lovedripdrop]

Maybe the gender wars are that bad

Maybe it's an algorithm thing

Maybe they're just not that into you

Or like the tootsie roll commercial said, "the world may never know"

What I do know is this poem style is called a Cinquain.

Another @aug-kissed inspired cinquain, this time using the prompt Frantic Kisses

Savour

When I

return to you,

starving, seeking your taste,

let me savour your fierce blessings

this time
