I wrote this the other day, on the first day of NaNo while I was brainstorming some poem ideas, and thought I'd post it as I just typed it up. Thought you guys might find it slightly entertaining. Maybe.Who knows. Indulge me.
November First
Furiously tying 1,000
Words before nine am -
That’s what NaNo does
To you. Immediate feeling
Of satisfaction, something
Already done, and plenty
Of time to go.
That eager anticipation
As the days countdown –
November is around
The corner and you know
What that means.
Over the world the
Same madness reigns,
Writers furiously scribbling
Desperate to reach
Their daily word count
And I am wasting time
By writing this poem
Instead of topping up
My word count.
Hope everyone's NaNoing is going well!
10K is amazing! I just got there to. I am trying to get on with uni work today, but I keep getting distracted because I want to write my novel LOL. It must be done though.
