bustling masses,
rushing nowhere, slog through life,
apathy’s minions

A bit late, catching up on my weekly writing challenges, but nevertheless, mission accomplished. A haiku this week for Colleen Chesebro’s Tanka Tuesday Poetry Challenge Prompt (Synonyms Only): Vigor (bustle) & Energy (life).

Hope you two are safe and all is well. I love the word “minions…” You are always so creative in expressing your feelings. Well done, Kat. ❤

Thanks Colleen. We are fine. The brunt of Florence edged around us. Though my heart breaks for those who witnessed her fury.

I feared for you all. I remember years ago reading that one of Edgar Cayce’s visions proclaimed that we would discover in the new century that hurricanes were man made. Of course, I never thought about global warming when I read that passage. It looks like that is coming true. ❤ Glad you are safe.

I think you are right. They are getting fiercer as the years pass.

Haha. Thanks Bee. I love that movie. I settled in over the weekend on a Netflix movie binge. A lovely way to spend a few hours. 🙂

That is so true. I am rediscovering films. Was watching Mockingjay on Saturday and enjoyed it a lot. Shame they don’t show the second yet…

That is a good one. I find myself watching more films and less primetime programming. It bores me. So much of the same usually always with a gripping cliffhanger. I like to watch things beginning to end in one sitting these days. 🙂
