I Am The Night
For The Vocal Abecedarian Challenge
Introduction
My friend Cherri is a wonderful Macramé artist, here is another piece that I did on her work.
This is what she said about her latest piece
I’m learning to do pixel macramé and I have decided that cross stitch patterns can easily be turned into pixel art. I have found the most perfect pattern ever! I can even attach some brushed-out cord as the emo bangs.
I thought I could combine Cherri's art with the Vocal Abecedarian Challenge, and her wonderful daughter and cats will be included as well.
The music is "I Love The Night" by The Blue Öyster Cult
The Prompt
Write an abecedarian poem.

A Lancashire Abecedarian
Introduction I thought I was done with this challenge then I was reading Stuart Maconie's "Pies And Prejudice" and he had reached his home town of Wigan and started listing a lot of the odd place names in the Lancashire area. Of course, I thought that might be an idea for a poem. Obviously "Z", "X" and "Q" will be awkward but I will see if I can do it.
