T
his excerpt is one of many in the second book in the ShiftPoetry collection, titled Poetry without Pants, Written When Nobody's Looking, brought to you by the editors of ShiftPoetry in the Time of COVID-19.
Boxers or Briefs?
Tidy whiteys or a lacy thong?
It used to be a guessing game you might play in a bar.
Now the choice is made before sitting down at the computer.
Zoom call attire required only from the waist up.
A must-have for anyone and everyone stuck at home, Poetry without Pants is an off-camera sometimes off-color look at what lurks behind the screen and below the desk.
As the title implies, the book is a look at life during the pandemic, when many of us have been isolated and separated, conducting business, having meetings, and celebrating monumental personal occasions over Zoom.
When you engage with Poetry Without Pants, you will be provoked, shocked, entertained, and hopefully very inspired to create your own poems, riffs, stories, and songs - written when nobody's looking.
Poetry without Pants offers poetic insight into the psyches and behaviors of people trying to find normalcy in these abnormal times. The workbook feature provides the opportunity for readers to respond and write their own stories.
Poetry Without Pants Written When Nobody's Looking is available at ShiftPoetry.com, Amazon, Walmart, and Barnes & Noble for $20 and as a bundle with ShiftPoetry In the Time of Covid-19 for $30.
