Greetings! I didn't want to wake up this morning,but here I am with today's word - #literature. According to Collins that is any writing of artistic merit,which isn't much help when deciding on the genre of my books.Are they literary or pulp fiction?
I may go back to bed now.

I Fought The Law
Round 1:
Bell rings
ding
ding
Law comes out swinging, jab to my conscience.
I duck, footwork sloppy, nerves tangled in booklaces.
I throw a hook, miss.
Law counters with precedent.
Crowd roars.
1....2....3
I rise, unsteady.
ding
ding
stagger to my corner.

Bard Language
A Shakespearian sentence
strides into a bar.
The verb’s drunk,
again,
picking fights with tipsy adjectives.
The noun forgets its own name.
Nobody gets the punchline,
“A Comedy of Terrors”,
but everyone laughs,
nervously.

The Rise of the Far Right
The forest burns, yet
still we plant the spark,
history’s lesson
written clear as bone.
How many times must
tyranny leave its mark,
how many fields turn ash,
how many stone
monuments to cruelty
must we raise
before we learn to fear
the old dark ways?

Good morning! Today's word is #history. Which I wish I'd studied better at school, because I'd enjoy historical novels more. My first husband knew the dates of all the Kings of England, which was useful.
I look forward to reading your mini historical works.

Travel broadens minds, they say,
so I took geography.
Got lost on my way to class
and failed my GCSE.

She has no sense of direction and is useless with map and compass. But she knows the fierce #geography of her hometown intimately. The illusion of grace on the sea's surface as it encircles Drake’s Island in an embrace. Experience says this glaze betrays the satiating collision of rivers.

Good morning! The next word from my Xword book index is #geography - not one of my better subjects from school, though I enjoyed drawing maps.
I still prefer real maps - if I don't know where I am now, how can GPS tell me where to go next?
