Michelle at Poefusion Friday 5 offers these five words to use in a writing exercise.
suss, condign, cicisbeo, monadnock, exoskeleton
In the hoodoo shade
of a red rock monadnock
like a misplaced crab
sans exoskeleton
a weary cicisbeo leans
into his ache to suss and tell
that the punishment she doled
was truly not condigned

Well done, Tumblewords. I'm glad you recognized some of the words. If nothing else I'll be remembered for my flavorful Friday 5 words. Again, nice job. Have a nice day.
difficult words for me Tumblewords...interesting writing !
LOL....
You are a word smith!
My daughter is too. I needed a dictionary for these. Although I love the way you let me know what these obscure words mean by the way in which you use them...
Always delightful to read your work.
Thank you,
Sherry
I used a dictionary I am not proud. :) A satire kinda long.
Love your haiku and if you remembered them you mind is excellent. Just like your pic and write fit like a glove.
Wow! that was great!
I am off to look it all up in a dictionary...:(
