[curious minds need to know]

what's wrong with twenty-three

when I play the lottery

pick your own”

I play “forty-four”

and “twenty-three”

  6. You'll know it's lucky when you win. (See I said when, not if?) 44 looks like 2 wings.

  12. Challenging enough to use only 44 words, thanks!

  13. I actually know why we came up with the idea of 44. There was once a challenge called Trifecta who sometimes had a challenge of doing 33 words... we just upped the number to 44 and came up with the Quadrille as a number (the very first word was dance).... as for picking a lucky number I have never done it, I try to avoid gambling.

  14. I love this! It seems like so many forms of poetry are somehow just thought of out of the blue.

  15. Maybe you can come up with a form involving the number 23 somehow.
