napowrimo day 3

This weekend was a little full on. The official napowrimo prompt involved making prompt cards and was more labour and thought intensive than I had mental space or energy for.

I have used the allographic prompt which was to write a poem of diminishing syllables, startimg with 11. The first line has 11,  the next 10 and so on ending at 1.

This poem is a little hackneyed,  but inspired by my current environment 

Monosyllabic 

Not awake nor asleep. You live in twilight
Footsteps are leaden on the plastic floor
And the sound of voices from the other 
Conversation fill your silence
Himmer hmm. Blipper blip. Blip.
Since I've seen you, I am 
...  truncated like
You are trun...
Blipper blip
Blip blip
Bleep
