Today’s prompt is to make a Personal Universal Deck, select two cards, and use the words to construct a poem. The words on the two cards I drew were sour, chaos, sharp, and clap.

staff meeting sarcastic responses to my suggestions for improvements not the applause I expected for my incisive analysis of the chaos that besets our production processes i detest business politics that obstruct any progress that threatens the status quo repeating the same actions produces identical results insisting otherwise is madness once again my proposal will optimize our manufacturing procedure creating enhanced quality with greater productivity at lower cost no down side sour expressions sharp criticism the sound of one hand clapping

I love this idea of a personal universal deck and have never heard of it. Thank you for sharing

Do you agree that thinking of all the words and making the cards was harder than writing the poem? Now, what do I do with all the scraps of paper? I think we need to draw for our friends and send them the words!

It definitely took me longer to make the deck. I cut index cards in half. I actually have word bank cards that are suggested by Susan Goldsmith Wooldridge in her book poemcrazy (see this article: https://arhtisticlicense.com/2017/03/04/review-of-poemcrazy-freeing-your-life-with-words/), so I put my universal deck in the plastic bag with those.
