Can’t help but verb the wor(l)d. Come play, over at dVerse.
This prompt ,was made for you. Excellent, nay, beyond excellent. I love this…haiku this bramble broken sky.
Thought of you when I wrote that line, Toni. Sending you so much love and prayers.
I really like this … especially the part about what I perceive to be moon-scented fingers. Also “Vowel it deep.”
You are amazing! So MANY favorite words and lines…I’ll pick one: “Tabernacle yourself.”
I am dubbing you the queen of verbification! 🙂
This is so perfect.. there are so many great uses of verbs here it just moves.

That’s just excellent. But I have to say, the whole thing is great. Serious wordplay.
I liked the sound of this: “A it.
B it. See it through new eyes.”
I liked this line, “Whowhatwhenwherewhy this muddled Mother.” Nice verbification going on in this poem.
I really like “hurricane these quiet walls” — I can’t wait to try this!

I agree, your poem is soo cool De 😀 “Vowel it deep; steep it into some semblance of silence.” Yes please!❤️
De, which line do I pick as a favorite – each one is a work of verbified art! Agree with Lillian when she dubbed you the queen of verbification!
‘…crescent/it with moon fingers. Stairway it in stars….’ and ‘haiku this bramble-broken sky’ – heavenly!.
I want to anthology this one.
Outrageously good!
Very good!
