Things
Yeah, I've sure done a fine job of that poem-a-day thing. I choose to blame things, as things have been busy. Things also have no single source of consciousness. I prefer to think that things are a collection of thoughts. Therefore things will not feel the blame and feel bad. I don't want things to change because of how they feel. That's just how things are. So it's not my fault. Things have been busy.

Poem a day month... but not mine
Some of you might remember such classic months as October, Blog-a-day Month, and November, Haiku-a-day Month. This website:
http://blog.writersdigest.com/poeticasides/April+PAD+Challenge+2009+Rules++Blahblahblah.aspx
has poem a day month in April. As you can see, they have a different prompt for every day of the month. I'm going to attempt to submit something as often as I can. April isn't the best month for this, with the DC trip. I'll continue stressing out over that for the next week and a half, and then I'll be gone for the week after that. I'll do my best, but I won't be as consistent as I am with B-A-D and H-A-D months. So next post: entry #1
