Week 3 - The 20 sided die returns!

My fate will be decided by the roll of the dice. Or, to be less dramatic and more precise about it, the number of poems I will write over the remainder of this project will be decided by the roll of a die. That's right, the 20-sided die that was so instrumental in previous years' projects (see here and here) is being taken out of retirement, and will be used to determine how many poems - on top of the daily tweet - will be written this year.

A few quick rules:
- Number will range from 2-19. 1 and 20 are rerolls.
- All topics will be taken from the deck. I may use one topic for multiple poems. Wild Cards will be shuffled back into the deck.
- All poetic forms will be writer's choice. Most will be drawn from the lists I've used in previous years, but there could be some new ones too.

So, the magic number will be:
8


The first topic being:
Two of Diamonds - Breakfast Television


Expect eight extra poems to surface here over the next twelve days...
