NaPoWriMo Day #27

Big Tent Prompt: Poem about Mason Jars

A Collection in a Marson Jar
The typos have been
Collected into
The mason jar
Turn the page
Glaring
Staring
Overlooked
and
Angry

The princess in her finery
Hesitates to take a step
The tea is laid
Letters in a row
The mason jar overflows
Glaring
Staring
Overlooked
and
Angry

The roller coaster
Begins its' slow assent
Stitches made
March along the edge
The finger is pierced
Red Blood drops
Onto the snow
Glaring
Staring
Overlooked
and
Angry

The typos tumble
Performers all
The lights come up
Masters of illusion
Like weeds in the garden
Snuggle up to favorite plants
Want to stay
Want to be loved
Glaring
Staring
Overlooked
and
Angry
