Oh, radiant sun!
I explore this new morning
Weekend sans Facebook.
Suspicious birdsong—
Noisy swallows retweeting
Fake news on a wire?
Faceless in this crowd,
Bewildered I meander…
No one needs a like.
Frantic for caffeine,
I dash into greasy spoon,
But I can’t “check in.”
Foreign face in toast
Conjures Instagram moment—
Also deleted.
Toxic media,
Begone from my existence!
Not you, silly blog.
Present in present,
I incubate baby pomes,
My little Om-lettes.

Funny you should mention 12 ~ I used 12 prompts I missed. Just wanted to make a little story out of them. 😀

The cartoon Paula is sitting in a yoga pose.
Does that mean the real Paula is doing yoga?
If so, Yay!
If not, there’s always tomorrow. 😌

Not yet, but I am feeling much calmer and more in control of my time since my exit. Great for the peace of mind and heart. 🙂
