A twiglet is a short phrase. Or a word. Its aim is to “prompt” a flow. A thought. A memory. If something comes to mind, write. A polished piece isn’t the goal; creativity is. Leave a link, if you’d like your work read, but comments should not be expected. Twiglets are posted on Tuesdays.

FIVE FAR-BETTER POEMS
1
Life is far better if you fill your basket
With hand-out kindness for the basketless.
2
It’s a better walk when we can dance it
than curse the stones.
3
Sometimes it’s better to wait patiently,
and not anger over late rewards.
4
What is far better for me
is not necessarily far better for you.
5
In my youth, I thought all that I did
was excellently executed,
then Papa killed that notion
and showed me a better way.

For April PAD as well….
Need to get to Home Depot
and pick up some tools:
Love screwdrivers
heartache wrenches,
heartstring pullers or such
My ticker skips a beat
then stops every damn time
I see you step from the shower
I had a 20 pack of love poems
by Neruda, “Starts the coldest heart!”,
but lost the instructions
Any ideas for something better
than this four-valve gizmo of mine?

is there a time limit? I laugh in the face of time limits, and of danger. Sometimes.

Sarah – that’s *amazing*. Smoking great. (pardon my American over-the-top-ness, but potent imagery and language throughout).

Ha! I am aware that my tendency is to say things like “that’s rather good”, and that doesn’t necessarily convey my enthusiasm very well.
