#21 NaPoWriMo -- off-topic again

Too late a night spent grading
to work up a draft
to meet a prompt. 
So these impromptu
lines
will have to do.

***

The wind tonight
is steady and cold,
firm and fierce,
promising rain,
but sometimes
the wind lies.

#20 NaPoWriMo -- Just a little whining is all

Too tired for the prompt again.  This'll have to do:


warmth of heating pad on shoulders
soothe the tensions of the
millstone around my neck.

(excessive grading)
