letters fall in line / from puzzle to quiet verse / worku every day

21 September

Posted on September 22, 2026September 22, 2026

This week’s theme: presence. Notice what is here, right now—a person, an object, a sensation, a creature, a moment.

words from wordle 1,920

Collaboration: Diana Marie (poem) + Paulette Carmelita (words) 5/6
STAGE BARON: EAGER
WAGER we hear him shout “Line!”
Whose PAGER is that??

Debbie Wilson 3/6
Couple takes their PLACE
Quietly reading PAPER
A PAGER vibrates….

Robo 4/6
The BEAST licks the CREAM
on the RANGE, in a bucket,
next to the PAGER

B-lu 4/6
RAISE TAMER issues
the PAPER will write you up
PAGER will explode

Mark 0/6
STARE down, but don’t BREAK
READY the WAFER thin mint
GAMER need LAGER

auntie jj 5/6
RHYME hit much LATER
a SAVER of the WAGER
old school, ping PAGER

Mick 3/6
DANCE with a BAKER
in the cool autumn moonlight —
PAGER burns the scene

what it is

  • worku is a daily practice where your wordle guesses become a haiku
  • use your guesses in the same order you played them
  • aim for imagery and flavor over perfect grammar
  • add a touch of nature, humor, or irony

“Worku is good for saying what you are thinking, which is why I have so many about cheese. Nice finding a place.” — Mark
