New Quadrille prompt this week at dVerse poets from Whimsygizmo, that dVerse 44 worder to include just one word.
The word this time around?
“Whirl”
//////////////////////////////////////////
Whirly Whirl Anxious Days
It hovers, floats
above
with
Birds
it fast circles a drowning
swirling
Pool
down
to the depths
realizing sea monsters
it
Gigs
a carousel’s spin
it
rides overwhelming
Wind
all in a blur
of a many
Whirl
curling fear’s toes
in anxiety’s
anxious days

A breathless, vivid read!

I feel the motion in this one, Stephen — it really captures that dizzy, restless energy of anxious days. I love how the word “Whirl” anchors the whole piece.
