April 7th - WILD CARD

Joker - WILD CARD

Whaaaat?

When I draw a WILD CARD things are done in a slightly different fashion. I have a few less orthodox forms up my sleeve. So I won't have to roll a dice today. Instead I'll draw another card:

Ten of Hearts- Afterglow

So now I have to find, revise, and post an old poem of mine that has something to do with afterglow.

Conveniently enough, I recently wrote a poem about afterglow (in all it's definitions), that at this point in it's life really doesn't need much revising.

Cop-out or artistic licence? You decide.
