#NaPoWriMo #April #2023

Today, I challenge you to write your own index poem. You could start with found language from an actual index, or you could invent an index, somewhat in the style of this poem by Kell Connor. Happy writing!

❤️❤️This prompt I really enjoyed. I hope the last three days’ prompts are as good❤️❤️

An Index Poem in the Style of Kell Connor (with acknowledgement to Eric Berne, M.D. and his book's, The Games People Play, index)


Activities.
Definition -difference between pastimes and adolescents.
Babies are forever not just for Christmas.

Addicts.
All great men were delinquent husbands.
A wife is forever not just for the holidays.

Good Joe?
I can get it for you, wholesale, happy to help
I am adding these favours up and then you owe me big time.

Indignation.
If it weren't for him/her/them/you,
I'd show them
Excuses are like pie crusts, only they all fall through.

Kick me.
That's right, kick me when I'm down, poor little old me.
Own up to your actions and take responsibility

Veteran
They let me down, psychoanalysis
in a NHS hospital in 2 years time?
Happy for us to fight and die for our country but don't come home to be patched up.
