Other Being’s Dreams
A poem where every word has an “e” in it.
Every now, every then
Dreams enter their realm, their consciousness.
Are these beings essentially sentient?
Are we hopelessly misperceiving empathy, independent intelligence?
These dreams are where
we see the reality
we see where we relate
we see when we behaved the same —
eerily.
We see ourselves enter their role, forgetting reality.

“The Vowel Poem”
What’s your favorite vowel? Mine’s E. Pick your favorite vowel, and write a ten line poem in which every word uses that vowel. It doesn’t have to begin with that vowel, or even use it prominently (i.e. get it’s main “sound” from the vowel). It just has to be in the word.
A poem — E poem — I poem — O poem — U poem
