NaPoWriMo Day Twenty-Four: Suessally

Deep down in my own quagmire
I do not want to satire
I do not want to parody
NaPoWriMo- just let me be!

I am trying to follow the prompt each day
I try to write just what you say
But uninspired I feel right now
I'll end here and take a bow.

The prompt for day 24 was to write a parody or satire of a famous poem. I wasn't feeling it to much and thus this.

    I thought this was a clever response. I wasn't feeling the satire prompt either.

      Thanks! Satire is not my thing. I really like parodies, though. I just didn't have my weird al energy to do it bigger.

    I think you should definitely keep this prompt in the bag and revisit it someday when you're feeling more satirical. You'd kill it.

      Thank you but, I rarely enjoy satire. I think maybe I'm not sophisticated enough for it. Usually, it seems like an excuse to kick someone when they are already down, or to preach self-righteousness. I'll think about it.

    It works -- glad you're keepin' on! (from Oaks to Acorns)

      Thanks Liz! My sweetie-pies had been quoting Seuss to me all month, so this was the easiest path for me to take.

Hi! Thank you for the visit! Grab a plate and a sweet tea and let's dig in. It may take a while, but I always try to reply and return visits.
