This week let’s write a city poem. Write about the city you live in, the city you’re from or the city where you’d like to be. Or maybe why you don’t want to be in any cities. Post your place in the comments below.
This week let’s write a poem with the words each, paper and sense in it. This is another of those prompts where I randomly choose three words from a list of the top 1000 words in the English language plus a few of my favorites. Post your poems in the comments below.

Are we having fun yet?
This week let’s write an island poem. The poem can be set on an island, mention an island or use an island as a metaphor for something. No peninsulas! Post your insular poem in the comments below.

This week let’s write an architectural poem. Architecture, like poetry, is an art form so this could count as an ekphrastic prompt. Write a poem about a famous building or architect, or maybe design your own building with a poem instead of blueprints. Post your construction in the comments below.
Here’s looking at you, June.
