Daily writing prompt
If you had to switch lives with a fictional character for a week, who would you choose?

Angry Monkey [Common Meter]
Angry Monkey pops his head up,
behind glass at the Zoo.

Sitting 'round in a monkey suit
with walls one sees right through.

adrift on a lake:
matched by the clouds
that float overhead.

PROMPT: Villain
Have you ever liked a villain more than the hero? Who and why?

Forsaken Village [Haiku]
underwater:
fish swim through submerged huts --
forsaken village.

Yielding [Tanka]
beneath cypress trees
stands a small pagoda;

by storm-dropped limbs;
it won't outlast those trees.
