Procrasting Donkey Submission
There is a poetry site called Procrastinating Donkey that is written by Jenny-O that I enjoy reading. Even though I am not a poet by any sense of the word, I decided to try to write a poem based upon her weekly prompt. This week it was "Phone". Here is my attempt:
ODE TO THE PHONE
Within the life of humans,
communication is key.
To live a life unfettered,
it is not of ONE, but WE.
The phone, it is a tool,
that we can use and can rule.
To allow communication,
and to even promote puns.
But, for some, the phone,
is not a tool, but a bone.
A bone of strife and contention,
when it has an Internet connection,
And is used instead to eliminate
communication with a nearby friend or mate.
In this way, it can be,
that a phone may help,
to communicate, or instead to obfuscate.

Yes, I know.... not particularly good. But.... it was kind of fun to try.

I hope you get some more comments over here on your blog, PT - I also hope you saw the ones under your comment on my blog where you posted your poem. It's good to get feedback.
I just left a reply to your question about where to post. It was a bit long, but the short version is that you can post on my blog, on your blog, or both - it's entirely up to you :)
