My 2nd dribble
EPIGRAPH:
You won’t burn in hell. But be nice anyway.
–Ricky Gervais (b. 1961)
despite my circumcision
I came to the decision
to reject senseless division
with the one provision
that others are nice

Great poem here David.
I’ll stick to dribbling the basketball… easier for me.. 🤣
🏀 so does that mean that you’re just going to take your ball and go home, Cindy? 😉
I’m here aren’t I …🤣🤣🤣 let’s just say I’ll leave it to you for the dribbling poetry as I dribble on my morning scone (which I’m not eating lol) 💖
and now… for your reading pleasure…
(enjoy your scone!)
you make me laugh which is a good thing and thanks. I’ve never heard of a hexistitch but my first opportunity, I will read up.. thanks
it just means a verse with 6 lines – nothing fancy
the badger hexastitch counts syllables per line, like this:
2
4
6
6
4
2
like this?

🥰 thanks so much, Grace 🥰

My pleasure.❤️
I think “despite my circumcision” might be my favorite opening line
😉 ❤ 😉
Sounds good to me!
😃 Lesley, thank you 😃
well, to me this sounds like a lot of very Jewish sense of irony. But then, I learned in Moreno’s Psychodrama, if you get 12 people to give feedbacks, there will be 13 different opinions and likely none meeting your own truth… Happy writing.
well, I am both Jewish and ironic… so you may be on to something there, Barbara…
– big goofy grin –
This one is fun! I think being nice trumps all except being kind!
I just used “nice” because of the epigraph 🙂
And it was a very good choice!
