Triathlon
An endurance trial
Lasting the sixth month of the year
requires training
in the months that are

So poets can hone the muscle tone necessary to
swim the white word rapids,
cycle through poetic forms, and generate a
run of poems for the distance.

You were in it for the distance! I for one am impressed with your writing muscles.

I’m always in awe of those who manage 30 poems and so I do think of this very much as an endurance test.
Great description of LexPoMo!
Exactly! Wonderful to read you this month, Deanna!
Very nice – from the title to the breathless ending.

Such a great way to describe this month! Definitely the only kind of triathlon I’ll ever be training for!
You described this thing we do well!
