ransom

Having misread a line in a poetry review this morning, I wrote a found prose poem based on that, and this is often how I ‘find’ my prompts for writing.

The line misread was ‘enunciating in capitalised italics’ [review here] which I saw as ‘capitalist’ [even if that is the briefest of errors] and substituted that word within an otherwise same title for my found poem.

Not that I’m presenting that poem here. The focus on ‘italics’ reminded me I had written the above poem ransom recently having been introduced by a friend to the Ransom Note Fonts site here [so given as acknowledgement but also for anyone to visit and use].
