Worth Changing

Today’s writing prompt over at dVerse  is to write and Alphabet Sestet. For example: Choose a 6 letter sequence in the alphabet, for example A-B-C-D-E-F or perhaps  J-K-L-M-N-O. Those letters, in that sequence, are the first letters of the first words in each corresponding line — as in line 1 starts with a word that begins with J; line 2 starts with a word that begins with K; line 3 with L; line 4 with M; line 5 with N; line 6 with O.


As I sit in some nameless

Bar, sipping my first (third?)

Cosmopolitan, I remember the

Day you left and changed

Everything worth changing

Forever — and I thank you for that.

    Very clever! I like that Nameless Bar. Reminds of a bar in my youth: He’s Not Here!

    The brevity of this poem fits the subject well : I am left wondering about the character. Well done!
