#NaPoWriMo Day 8. #Poetry rejection (warts and all) from March 2022, created into a wee video for your watching pleasure :D

Returning to normal #napowrimo business (or approximating normal) after a less-than-restful night and a surreal morning. The fact that the worst has not happened (yet) is cold comfort - there are psychotic criminals at the helm of great powers in this world, and for all our sakes they need removing.

ARMCHAIR PARALYSIS

The puppy sleeps
lightly
and if I budge from this armchair
watching over her
she loses the psychological
safety net
I’ve become
and the midmorning stasis is shattered.

So I sit
staring at the library book
on the coffee table
just out of reach
wondering if the trauma ends
in the next chapter.

Can’t find joy in anything
even No Joy by The Beths
streaming in my hearing aids
because the president is on
another toxic rant
crushing my newsfeed
and it doesn’t make sense
to do anything
when the world could end tomorrow.

My 7th #NaPoWriMo post.

English shaped my writing, but Cebuano still feels more personal, natural, and powerful to me. If you've heard Visayans speak, you know the oomph is real.

Thanks for reading.

A white square with black text along the top reading NaPoWriMo 2026. Beneath this is a flow chart with three boxes. Text in the first box reads “Find a bit of procedural or bureaucratic text – something like a contract, constitution or instruction manual." Text in the second box reads "Then choose an abstract noun you’re drawn to – something like grief, thought, hope or laughter." Text in the third box reads "See what happens if you use the structure and terminology of the formal text to explore this more abstract theme.” On the right hand side between boxes 2 and 3 is the name Kate Wakeling. In a spiky circle between boxes 1 and 2 on the left hand side is text which reads 'Prompt 8'.

This is the result of a habit trained on #napowrimo, world events and insomnia - the lines just kept coming last night, and needed somewhere to go!

7 - Advance #NaPoWriMo Day 7 and today I’ve been writing a sonnet inspired by the prompt “JD Vance Learns in Real Time Trump Left Him Out of Iran Attack Plans”. This one will also get sent to the weekly Rattle: Poets Respond challenge, because hope springs eternal, and why not get another twofer in there? (And if you fancy learning how to write your own sonnet, why not come to one of my workshops on exactly how to do that?) Remember that, if you’re a subscriber to my Patreon, you can hear a recording of this piece (and the six preceding it) there. The link to the relevant post is here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/advance-155057788 --- Exposed, you send a memo to yourself, as, in full view, you’re ridiculed, alone. They ask why you’ve been left up on the shelf – it’s something you can’t see; you must be shown. You’re never more than one nudge from the drop; when elevated, check your footing’s fast, or else you’ll end up head-deep in the slop that’s everywhere – how long can this thing last? A while ago, you chanced upon a show that demonstrated toxic benthic vents, and even though it poisoned all below, the best-adapted worms thrived on the scents of threats to normal ways of backboned life. Your mission? Stay afloat on hot-aired strife. --- The Yeti crab (Kiwa hirsuta), discovered at a depth of 2,300 meters on a hydrothermal vent of the Pacific-Antarctic Ridge; photo by Alexis Fifis, via Wikipedia Because that’s how these things go, subsequent to writing this, I got lost in a maze of trying to find pictures of hydrothermal vents (and/ or their creatures) and now I know a bit more than I bargained for…

#NaPoWriMo Day 7. My dog was my muse for today’s poem ❤️. The prompt was to write a poem that emulates the songs of clapping games and jumprope and skipping rhymes – something to snap, clap, and jump around to. #poetry #poetrysky

Four‑Paw Dash Rhyme See squirrel, chase bird, do hard stare, Fence‑jump high through summer air. Sniff wind, hear call, chase a hare, Spin‑dance wild at dragonfly flare. Four paws down — roadway run. Zoom‑zoom racing through setting sun. Last call heard, ears up high. Paws pad home as voices cry.

Right - can’t blame #napowrimo on this one. It’s back to business as usual tomorrow (we hope) but for now, let’s draw a line under this…

Wow, #napowrimo has fused with events in my brain in an unusual way tonight.

And again, the inadequacy is palpable from this level of distance and safety. Yet if there does come a point where the poetic voice just gets tired of me… well, until then!

Blame #napowrimo again - the impulse just wouldn’t rest, and I had to chase it down. There might be a whole other sequence in there…

It might just be that #napowrimo has me in a particular mode to process certain things right now.

It feels singularly inadequate when the President of the United States is making open threats of war crimes and genocide on a global stage.

It will likely change nothing. But I’m writing now. So…
