January 4, 2014 “Censored”

Standard

The prompt, simplified: Write down 15 words you’ve never used in a poem and write a poem using at least 10 of them. Since I’ve written so very few poems to begin with, this prompt seemed ridiculous to me. But it did start me thinking about the word “censor” and associated homophones.

not censorship
but sense, making
sense of the senses,
making the sensory sensual
stirring sensibilities
uncensored
