In fiddle-wrecking, mustard-seeking, grasp for comprehension.
Should we wreck
the sacred fifty-five?
of honesty-compression and lugubrious self-exposing,
word-explosions beyond the mind-expanding borders of
the sacred fifty-five.
Should we paint-by-number Friday-ode’s to the grey-mundane?
Should we ink-dance outward to a braille-horizon?
without your sacred fifty-five.
how could we cope?
Is there a hope
of sacred fifty-fives?
I wrote a poem for G-man‘s anouncement that he will not sell his Harley, but he will cease the Friday 55.. hopefully replacement will step up.
I also link this to my own kenning prompt at dVerse.

I specially like this part :Should we ink-dance outward to a braille-horizon? Hopefully it will continue ~
AH.. so I hope.
You have asked a lot of profound questions in this 55. I am not in favor of a paint by number Friday. That is, unless my well totally runs dry. Smiles!!
Excellent poem Bjorn and you got to air your skill in kennings once again.
fiddle-wrecking…ink-dance…smiles…sad to see g-man take a bow…but i know how you can burn the candle running a community…there will never be another g….smiles.
a lovely tribute. I enjoyed your kenning selections.
Bjorn…
I have over the years come across many Sacred 55’s
some were indeed worthy of sanctity.
Loved your tribute 55
Thanks for playing, hope to see you next week
Have a Kick Ass Week-End
cool, Bjorn ~
Great tribute to the 55, and its host! I guess I find the 55 so sacred I do not want it to change. 🙂
Good poem but I don’t understand the reference.
G-man has hosted the writing of 55 words each Friday.. But now things will change
ink-dance outward to a braille-horizon….ha…so good… sad to hear that g-man stops running 55’s … i used to play and it’s such a good exercise to do 55’s …and a lot of fun as well… happy saturday björn
Very telling – and then I read about the Harley and I erupted in laughter!
Cool and intense. It really captured the spirit of fun as well as the sadness at the departure of the beloved host of Friday Flash 55.
Ink-dance outward to a Braille-horizon…
That line broke my brain like seeing MJ dunk from the free-throw line. So very dope. Brilliant. Wish I had thought of it.
Ah, I love the ink-dance, don’t you? We get to retrace our steps afterwards, almost every time.
I love “link-dance.”
Fiddle-wrecking and ink-dance…great kennings you came up with, Bjorn. Sad to see G-Man give up the 55…I used to join in pretty regularly for awhile.
Wow…very very good Bjorn. And sad to see the G-man stopping the 55.
A fitting tribute to the G-man! Also, I liked your piece at dVerse about kenning. I did give it a try, but was too late to link up. The background you included was quite interesting. Thank you.
