Challenge
#JUMBLE TONGUE -- 3rd installment complete with a Prize! The topic is "death" which means spiritual or physical "death" in the most creative and abstract play of words you can think of. Could be an act that results in death, the aftermath of death, or the essence of death, a Eulogy for the dead etc. Writer's choice. "Best" piece chosen by a 3 judge panel of myself and 2 others. Winner gets a custom ready-to-hang 16"x20" canvas with their jumble on it! (Feel free to inquire for details.)

Last One Original (Jumble Tongue)
must be required that unanimous
blood runs flee negativity
and give-it-back inhales
go home to waiting atmosphere
queued for baby breaths
chance gives clue of pretend glimpse
forever dodged but the telltale
of wanton tick-tocks remain
stop and digit along
neutral coated uh-oh's
sometimes self-debt arrives demanding
I scribble the hooded one an IOU that falls short
