Poetry Monday :: In a CaveMandagsdigtet :: I en hule

Poetry Monday - what's that? It is a blogging game, that Mimi of Messymimi's Meanderings and I have taken over the hosting duties, mostly the supplying of the prompts - only temporarily we hope - while Diane at On the Border is taking a break for health and relaxation, travelling the world with her husband as far as we can tell.  We just hope she's going to take back over once she returns home.

The prompts now come from 365 Days of Drawing Prompts and other Arts group. This is a Facebook group with a prompt for each day of the year, but no worries, the prompts will still be here and at Mimi's blog.

Today's prompt is In a Cave. Sometimes I think it is too obvious that our prompts are really drawing prompts. This is one of the occasions. But well, Poeming must happen.
I do not often talk politics on my blog, but tomorrow is election day for the local elections.
Election days are per tradition Tuesdays in Denmark.

Sometimes I would like to live in a cave
Tomorrow's election, and we must be brave.
We must venture out, cast a vote on our fave
Alas I am fearful, the future is grave
Too many mean ones, too many to stave
with my single ballot, but I must be brave
If I just do nothing the way I do pave
For evil, pollution and slave.

Hvad er Mandagsdigtet? Det er en blogleg, som Mimi fra Messymimi's Meanderings og jeg har overtaget - midlertidigt! - fra Diane, der slapper af og rejser verden rundt med sin mand. Vi håber hun er parat til at tage over igen, når hun kommer hjem.
     Stikordene kommer nu  fra 365 Days of Drawing Prompts and other Arts. Det er en Facebook-gruppe, der udgiver et stikord til hver dag i året, men bare rolig, stikordene vil stadig være at finde både her og på Mimis blog.

Dagens stikord er: In a Cave - I en hule. Nogen gange er det næsten alt for tydeligt at det er stikortd til at tegne efter, også i dag. Men digtes, ja, det skal der!

Jeg drømmer nu om at bo i en hule
Jeg frygter i morgen, jeg kan ikke skjule
at valget i morgen med alt dets ballade
er over os. Jeg frygter for skade
på marker og enge og fugle.
Det skræmmer en granvoksen ugle!


Det her er et eksempel på det, der skræmmer mig  -- 😟  😶 --   This poster scares me

Smuk farve - skræmmende budskab   -- 😟  😶 --   Beautiful colour  - scary message

This message translates roughly to: "There's most of us."
The party behind this poster advocates for remigration and
more freedom for farmers.
I hope there's more of the rest of us, but I really fear for the future.
