April PAD Challenge: Day 8 Posted by Robert
For today's prompt, pick a tool, make that the title of your poem, and write your poem. There are the more obvious tools, of course: hammer, screwdriver, wrench, etc. But there also less obvious tools and/or specialized tools available as well. Before attacking this poem, you may want to just think about the various possibilities first. Or just write.
I decided today to tackle something over which I have developed a true phobia - so much so, in fact, that I gave the issue to one of the characters in my book. Meredith's mother, Maureen, developed telephobia - or the fear of talking on telephones - because of her failed attempts to reconnect with Meredith in California.
Here is my attempt for tonight:
Phone
You keep on ringing
Incessantly annoying
Please leave a message
Thanks for reading!
