Connecting two randomly selected words every day to create a stream-of-consciousness poem.
Today’s words: Safe + Job

Everything’s fine and the
day’s going great
until, from nearby
something flies in your face!
You scream in surprise
at the startling burst

I’m the one who steals your socks
and messes up your bed.
When you wash your white laundry
I add in something red!
I like to throw around ki

Grab a brush,
let’s paint the sky.
We’ll start with stars
and things that fly!
Then we’ll make
the brightest sun,
we’ll use all shades
’til

Please don’t call
or I may just cry.
I will not answer
but may certainly die.

I once met a gnome
who lived in a jar
and he told me a tale
of his travels “afar”.

“Oh my!” Proclaimed I
as I spotted my foe:
a big hairy spider
with at least fifty toes.

Everything I know
and everyone I know
will eventually die.
