In addition to this little piece of nonsense (shame the word 'vorpal' has already been invented) I tidied up the sonnet.
my left ankle
Geisha hobbled
pinned and plated
my foot curls backwards
without invitation
agony of fascination
the side of my leg
where nerves are severed
aches nothingly

"Geisha hobbled / pinned and plated" Love the strong apt beats of alliteration. Two form poems from me: a rondel (off prompt) and a sonnet (on prompt). =)
ReplyDeletefoot curls backward / without invitation – oooh, yes, I can feel that.
ReplyDelete"without invitation"--immensely clever. "aches nothingly"--brilliant!
