My responsive verse, entitled Kismet, plus a housekeeping note. (All this I'm doing on a mobile phone, so there are some limitations.) J-T, does your poem bear a title? Has it appeared in print per se?

🔹Imagine that
Mt. Fuji without snow
a president with no wisdom
plants with no will to grow
a semblance lacking is-dom
a joke that has no punchline
construction but no lunch line
Christmas devoid of Santa
imagine that? I can'ta!

I rarely dip into BlueSky, but might post now & then.
Today, tweeted this hat-tip stanza that culls a few lines from an old, noted poem by Curtis Faville, thus.
The full poem of Faville's ("Aubade") can be seen here:

When you stare at the New York Times | the Times stares back

explication of the ineffable? | the drain
is what we always run down | when we argue

Being two beings requires
a rage for rigor,
rewritable memory,
hybrid vigor.
English herself is a crossbred
mother mutt,
primly promiscuous
and hot to rut.
