2022 Poetry Challenge Extract - Streak 2, Days 2-5

Day 2 rolled around, and the challenge continued nicely, although I was feeling uninspired, so I continued to practice form poetry, focusing on the garland cinquain...and using unicorns and foolish wizards as themes. Days 3-4 saw me writing verse into the dark with themes drawn from space colonies and dragons, and Day 5 was another colony fending off raiders.
