What time it is?
Is it morning?
Or lunch time?
Or perhaps dinner?
Oh I’m pretty sure it’s not Fall,
What am I talking about?
It is definitely December,
There are no flowers around,
What time it is?
Is it dawn?
Or it is midday?
Definitely not twilight,
Oh silly,
I have no idea,
I have tried many ways,
From the shadow of a stick to digital,
What time it is?
Because I need to watch the time.
#NaPoWriMo2019 Day 15: write your own dramatic monologue. It doesn’t have to be quite as serious as Browning or Shakespeare, of course, but try to create a sort of specific voice or character that can act as the “speaker” of your poem, and that could be acted by someone reciting the poem.
Happy writing!
Write Ally! Write!
