I found a ransom note in my lint trap
What do you think of that?!
APB for a missing sock
I wish it would come back
But if it’s being ransomed
I’m too stubborn to comply
I’ll find another single
Tragically separated from its mate
In a previous incident
Mismatch made in heaven
A precarious arrangement for sure
But I don’t negotiate with terrorists
The prompt is “a ransom note” from Maria Giesbrecht @theguelphpoet on Instagram. April 17, National Poetry Month 2022.
