Happy Friday the 13th

61

By Poetic Muse

My what a big word

I love this word. I love the way it rolls off my tongue. I like saying it three times fast. And I couldn't resist writing a poem about it. I hope you enjoy it.

Triskadecaphobia

This Friday you can find out if you have triskadecaphobia

When you check into an older hotel ask them to give you a room on the thirteenth floor

Chances are they won't have any vacancies

My boyfriend considers it a lucky day

Because he was born on the thirteenth

Will you wear your lucky charms this Friday?

Would you avoid buying a house on Thirteenth Street?

Would you get married on the thirteenth?

If not, you may have triskadecaphobia

My Poetry Blog

  • Does Poetry Believe In Me?

    I've been writing poetry all my life, and have posted quite a bit of it online. I've had this blog for years and I just noticed I don't have a single follower. Considering poetry is one of the things I'm best at, and went over well in college and creative writing and all that, the lack of recognition makes me sad. I do have fans that comment on my poetry over on Hubpages. Do people read poetry anymore? Or are there just so many billions of poems on the Internet these days that most of us are virtually ignored? I believe in poetry. Does poetry believe in me?
