maybe
((tautogram challenge))
misty, monochromatic mornings,
make me malinger
my movements mimicking molasses
my mouth, metallic
malaise… mushrooms.
.
murky, muddy mornings
make me malign myself
my mirror’s mug’s maturing
my muscles, macerating
misery… metastasizes.
.
muggy, miasmal mornings
make me mournful
my mind meanders memories
my mood, morose
melancholy… magnifies.
.
maybe, maybe ‘morrow…
maybe ‘morrow morning’s mistless
my movements may muster
my mouth may moisten
my mirror may mesmerize
my muscles may mobilize
my mind may motivate
maybe ‘morrow, my mood may mellow
maybe… ‘morrow
.
