Today’s Poetic Asides prompt calls for a Last _____ poem. I went the micro route today, with these three:
Last piece of pie β
a year ago I would’ve
left it for you.
*****
Last time
I got butterflies.
Today, only heartburn.
*****
Last spring
I still remembered
the sound of her laugh.

This is Not A Literary Journal suggests playing with repetition in a list poem, and the NaPoWriMo challenge is a fun one that I plan to try on a day when I have a little more time: write a poem inspired by fortune cookies. It reminded me of humorous Lines For The Fortune Cookies by Frank O’Hara.
