• NaPoWriMo Day 5 : The Chimera at the movies

  

  Today’s challenge is to write a poem about a mythical person or creature doing something unusual – or at least something that seems unusual in relation to that person/creature.

When the cousins decide to battle it out for property, honor and revenge, Guru Drona has to take sides and participate in […]
