First Tuesdays - April 2018

The Cento for April 4, 2018

All I wanted was to read his poems(1)

She had confided in me – it hurts sometimes, but I don’t care(2)

It’s alright, honey, just read your way along the scroll(3)

They have confused the presence of a hymen with the absence of lust(4)

It comes in all sizes and forms(5)

I still wonder if I could have handled those ropes and pulleys(6)

Spring will come when she comes(7)

Twirling like a whirlwind into a nowhere somewhere(8)

I have only been immobilized for several years(9)

All parts should be rinsed in warm water(10)

You may kiss the barrel(11)

Why the hell did you choose the 21st century?(12)
