Poem a day for Jo Prescott

I'm not sure I'll manage this every day in April but my struggles with Script Frenzy have inspired the first three for Jo Prescott's Dare which celebrates National Poetry Month:

Frenzy begins before Script
MuDJob celebration
Request for information
Practice nurse to tell me not to drink

Lisa’s Friday Book Blurb
and Lily Child’s ‘Prediction
Amy’s ‘Rightful Place’ has just arrived


Silent movie?
Cast assembled
Stage set
Software loaded
Me struck dumb


Script failure
I can’t make Shenanigans talk
like Sean can talk
Can’t break their silence
as Bridie does
Can’t put words in their mouths
Can’t bring them to life
And can’t even care ...
