For this week’s Moonwashed Weekly Prompt, Eugi has provided us with the word: DUBIOUS for our literary inspiration. Below lies my contribution to the prompt, hope ye enjoy the read! π€πππ
MOUNT DUBIOUS
Even though he jokes and jests
I don’t know about this guy
His intentions seem questionable
His motives, dubious
at best
Downright untrustworthy at worst
Can’t quite place my finger on it
This could end up being a mess
Erupting like Vesuvius
Molten hot lava
Of worst fears realised
Flowing down the mountain
Of misplaced trust
Burning everything in it’s path
Far from *salubrious
It’s why you’re better off
To have a select few friends
People that you can turn to,
Who form the nucleus
Of folk in whom you have
Complete confidence
Who’ll be there through
When the going gets tough
When you’re heart breaks
Over loved ones passed
Or other “friends” forsake
Save you from being *lugubrious
*lugubrious means excessively mournful
*salubrious means favourable to health of mind or body
