Theater Sports Poetry....GO!

The picture is the inside of my first poetry book from '89...the inscription of this book from a girl who I'm still best friends with. I've been writing since high school. Don't worry...I won't read from anything in this book...I like you guys too much! :) Also back in Junior High and High School...I RULED at Theater Sports. Theater Sports for those of you who actually got dates in High School was our version of "Whose Line Is it Anyway". O.k...for those of you who continue to date and still don't know what I'm talking about...it's a game....it's you and about 3 others. Your given a place, and a thing, and a location to work with...usually one having NOTHING to do with the other...(think...Dentist...Paris....and a Ham Hock)....now GO! Make a scene! And make it funny!
I don't give myself props on many things...but on this...I kicked ass. I could make anything work. I loved it so much...thinking on the fly. Kept me sharp. Well I'm out of High School now. My former creative partners now all have lives of their own...and I need some damn inspiration! A series of close friends...I had one for my poetry, one for stand-up routines and one for pretty much everything I threw at him, were always there for me. Helped me along, made my "stuff" better. Now I know what you all are thinking....what about John? Sure, John is awesome....but a husband's place should NOT be critic. It's too much. You want someone close enough that you respect their judgement, but also far enough that if they think it stinks...your sex life won't suffer! So that brings forth my challenge to myself. I don't wanna lose my creativity. I don't want 10 years to go by and not write anything. So throw a word at me. Go ahead...it won't hurt. It can be anything. Please don't give a word that over 15 letters long...come on!
And in the end...I wanna see if I can make a poem using the thoughts and words you give me. Nothing great...but just to give me a creative exercise to keep me sharp. I'm giving myself a day, o.k...maybe two. Let me have your random words.
