One day through distant woods I wandered far,
And came across a mushroom most bizarre.
It’s color I just can’t describe,
A blend of black and green.
Quite curious, I did imbibe
This odd fungal cuisine…
…I woke up later in a police car.

For the month of October, the art supply store at which I work is doing their own variation of Inktober (an artistic exercise wherein participants draw something every day for 31 days). Essentially, it is the same thing, but with different prompts and its own name. While I certainly know my way around pens and ink, this year I’ve decided to participate via poetry. Each poem this month will be based around that day’s prompt, which will serve as its title. For a complete list of prompts, please see the post “A Black Cat Crosses Your Path” from October 1.
