About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Torero
Prompt: Creation Saturday, let's have some fun with this words :
established, profession, star, donor, fashionable, productive, reality

Torero

In his established profession,
the fashionable torero
is a star, a productive donor
of fresh blood from the goring
of his gold tunic.

In reality, he’s in it only for
the ringside girl who fears for his gut
with a horn in it, and
yet, with a detached laugh
and evasive logic, guards
his electrifying nights
with Sangria, and shouts,
“Ole!”

Note: I have no idea where this came from. *Laugh* Definitely not from Meghan and Harry's wedding! Or did it? *Rolling*
