Word Prompt

Fusion

Challenge

The challenge is simple: each week you will be given an exact number of words you can use to write a poem or piece of prose. You can use any format or style you like; go wherever your inspiration takes you. The only rules are these:

your poem / prose must contain this week’s word. The word does not have to count towards the exact word count total – it can be in the title, or the first letters of the lines of a poem can spell it out – you can be as creative as you want as long as it’s there somewhere.
the length of your poem / prose must match the number of words stated in this week’s challenge. No more. No less.

Can’t wait to read what you have come up with!

Hey Sammi, Namaste 🙂

Hoping all is well and your weekend away a joyful experience.

Here’s my entry for this week’s challenge.

~ Fusion ~ By ~ Dewin Nefol ~
~
Two stood to stare at his silver machine,
Bright in sunlight she all but gleamed,
Though old her hold on gazing eyes,
Still teased and pleased and gratified.
~
He’d seen the ad and number-plate
One of two came to investigate,
Had popped her hood and tailgate,
To prod and poke and deliberate.
~
“Genuine mileage,” said one to the other,
“Wonderful times we’ve had together,”
“Did I mention she’s never been a bother?”
“Starts first time whatever the weather.”
~
“Hmm,” said one concluding inspection,
“There’s something you’ve failed to mention.”
“My critical eye can’t deny she is incomplete.”
“Her allure hides what lies beneath.”
~
“She’s a chop-shop piece merely illusion!”
“Three cars as one in welded confusion!”
“To try to sell her is absolute delusion!”
“I’ll not be buying your fabricated fusion!”
