Spoiler Alert

Posted on November 19, 2018 by Raivenne

Begun with ease
This weekend sailed
In flow and streams
Of marathon drifts
Plots news to us

A sibling with fringe
In boredom spoke free
Thus spoiled our binge
With a cuss

My punch’s sting
With cheers
Still rings
I don’t regret
The fuss

<>==========<>

Written for:

  Definitely siblings, though I did bop my late-husband once in ire for spoiling a movie for me. Thanks.

Nice line: “In boredom spoke free” It is amazing what boredom can do.

  It’s amazing and sometimes terrifying “an idle mind…”. Thanks
