Sunday Whirl Wordle #174
Africa rite grand reborn transgression candle
myself oranges demimonde asylum gray

Out to Africa
A honeymoon of sorts
Amid rites of privileges
Not unlike a grand display
Of being reborn to a new creed
To escape transgression

And myself, me
Mindful of not wanting
To exchange apples for oranges
Would rather reserve a candle vigil
With choice of contending
against demimonde tendencies

This is akin to those
in an asylum lacking
gray matter

  1. It is so very interesting and intriguing to read the many different paths these words have led us all down. Love "demimonde tendencies"---I found 'demimonde
    to be the hardest word to incorporate seamlessly, but you've done it here.

  8. Isn't it enough to contending with the world without battling ourselves but we do constantly. If only we could be like that placid stream.
