The Last Hole


The Last Hole

It hasn't been a good day.
All your shots have gone astray.

On the greens, you can't read the break.
Each line you choose is a mistake.

This course has certainly taken its toll,
but now you're on the last hole.

You give some thought to the notion
of simply going through the motions.

Instead you decide to give it your all.
You have nothing to lose except another golf ball.

This was written for a fill-in-the-blank prompt.

Fishing for Words


Fishing for Words

After sunrise, I rise.
Coffee ready,
I sit and sip
as a steady stream
of words runs
through my mind.
I wish I could hook
them one at a time.
Create the perfect line,
the perfect line,
the perfect line
until I finish.
Instead, I scratch
down what I can
then revise and revise.
I tire and go to sleep,
only to rise and start again.

Thanks to Rebecca Barray for the Wordsmith Studio Creative Prompt-Finish. What projects have you finished lately?
