An Invitation: A Poem Using the word: “inchoate” (in-ko-it)

Giant misses his golden goose

(This is not the poem I’m submitting, but is an inchoate original.)

Jack and the Beanstalk

Inchoate seed became the source of stalk and vine’s a-climbing.
Inchoate size then boomed the voice of giant’s growl and sighing.
Inchoate muscles pulled Jack up until he made the sighting
Of golden goose in huge tree house, his golden eggs a-laying.

To get Jack down, inchoate zeal arose to steal the day;
To go back up, inchoate faith and stealth to not be found.
Inchoate giants can still be tricked by tiny folk today
For valor, strength and wily acts are not the gist of pounds!

Rogue on the Road to Rhode Island

Quicksilver switches gears from Silver Path to Silver GPS

Rogue on the Road to Rhode Island
(departure:8AM)

Don programmed the GPS for 13 Sherman St.Newport,RI.
It calculated we would arrive at 12:38PM
But we skittered through Mass on the toll road,
And the robot continued to steer us back to the country routes.

It calculated we would arrive at 12:38PM
But, using the toll road, we parked at 11:24!
Speed limit on I90 was 65mph; in Conn: 30mph!

But we skittered through Mass on the toll road
First E, then N, then E;the robot voice ignored.
She never voiced her rage; calmly plotted on.

And the robot continued to steer us back to the country routes
U turns, hills, a satellite view from the clouds;
And we, like arrows, found our mark, stealthily on the ground.
