The prompt today was to write a poem asking questions
This poem was entirely inspired by Lorie Moore's Who Will Run the Frog Hospital? which is a delightful but heartbreaking book.
Who will run the frog hospital?
Who will run the frog hospital?
When the lily-soft girls
Are gone from the swamp
Who will kiss the soft green heads?
Who will cradle the long green toes?
Why do you hear a great croak and think man?
Why do you see that slimy green skin and think prince?
