Supine. Sleepytime.
Hibernate. Malinger. Surrender to Winter.
This week, write while horizontal.
Poem from a pillow.
Create beneath a comforter.
Touch the divine from your divan.
You may choose to write about relaxing or about winter inwardness, or you could write about a stressful subject with the support of bodily comfort. You might also try something playful, pillow-talky. Follow your fancy while flat on your back or belly.

Wonderland Alice
Pinafored, floats
a Cheshire grin
at the prone poet
supplicated
~
Pinned in place
Restrained limbs
open
needing yield to
Escape

I do not like to write prone
Although I've often done it
Others knowing that I'm lying
Is too vulnerable a position
From which to reach
for even the lowest summit
~
Splayed against the sheets
Words slide to a linear flat
Squiggled soldiers standing still
Prone to attack
Wonderful, Pearl!
ReplyDeleteI love your wordplay on "prone" and this:
"Others knowing that I'm lying
is to vulnerable a position"
beautiful prompt, Scooter!
