let’s get loose and funky,
let’s lose ourselves to this
furious sky. let’s turn and
kern, get drunk on phrase
and play with poems for
days and days until we
collapse in a hilarious high.
let’s dance ourselves sane,
feed our lungs moon’s lullaby.

Written for a fun new challenge over at dVerse, the Quadrille.
Exactly 44 words, using a given word. Come dance with us!
Love the energetic dancing verses De ~ My favorite line:
feed our lungs moon’s lullaby.
Ah, I like the idea of dancing ourselves sane! I am going a bit ‘stir crazy’ with our below zero weather here, so I could use a bit of this movement, I think!
Yes! Let’s! 🙂
“Dance ourselves sane,” never tried that one, probably need to. i’m sure i’ll be encouraged to try with this insporation
Love this, De! Funky and fun.
“drunk on phrase” and “a hilarious high”—now that’s the kind of intoxication I could totally get on board with 🙂 Really enjoyed this!

My God, yes, a wonderful foray, terrific wordsmithing; & the voice is clarion, the metaphor intriguing; lovely leading to smiles, hip hip, right on–a poet’s ballad, nearly an anthem. I like the lines /let’s lose ourselves to this furious sky/.
You’re playing my song 🙂
Ah De….loving this one! I’ll get loose and funky with you any day, in this wonderful world of dVerse! A very fun one for me.
These words feel like a spoken dance.
What fun! Let’s dance ourselves sane….great. De, you are contagious! I just posted #2.
Sounds like a resort for poets! Would love to check in.
Love it. 🙂
vibrant….wonderful!
“Dance ourselves sane. ” Such a brilliant line!
