Rules
- Create a poem using the 9 images on the dice (above).
- All 9 images on the dice must be referenced at least once, each, in the poem. [Images are interpreted loosely. How you interpret (or assign the image meaning) is up to you and will not count against you.]
- Make a post from your poem and use “poetrydice,” as your first tag.
- Label your entry clearly. Include "Poetry Dice Entry:" in your title, so I know it's official.
- Drop a link to your post in the comments section below, so I can find it.
Deadline to enter
Tuesday at Midnight PST UTC-7 (Oregon, USA)

I am not much of a poet but I don't shy away from challenges. I have a feeling i will get better at poetry following your blog.
My entry is Well deserved Pain. I hope you will like it.
What a great entry @golddeejay! Thanks for blessing us with your poem offering this week, adding new flavor to the mix!!

Love @breezin
Can I ask for the image is under the scales please ? :-)
It appears to be an upside down sky scraper building....totally open for interpretation though
This comment is very revealing :)
writing this soon!
Do I then need to refer to which dice I used if I, err...* Interpret* them ???
No, you don't have to highlight which images you are referring too on the dice, but it does help.
It's an off balance building. lol
I think it's a building/tower. It's upside down.
Thanks...I thought it was a cheese grater lol.
I thought it was a cheese grater too!
Thanks, I thought it was my overactive imagination. Can I use cheesegrater in my poem @robyneggs lol
yes!!!!
Great! I have done a little cheeky one under my author account @aubreyfox :-)
Is the one above the house a compass?
Chaosphere
Oh dear. I'm going to have to look that one up!
It's a symmetrical grouping of arrows or vectors...again, totally open to interpretation, a compass is a common description.
Boom shaka laka!

At first I thought, ugh 9 images, this must be a difficult challenge! Contrarily, it wasn't that difficult, and it was so enjoyable to do! Cannot wait to participate in future challenges!
Did I miss the post with the winners from the PD 'Memories' challenge?

Hope y'all enjoy!
Ruling from highrises, Safe in their towers,
There is no question who holds the powers.
Most people hide in their hallowed homes.
Distracting themselves with "smart" phones.
As sure as the sun falls, the moon will rise.
Can you see the chaos in front of your eyes?
With slight of hand, and hidden hints,
It's like tracking transparent prints.
The scales may be tipped,
The odds in their favor,
But the balance of power
Is starting to waiver.
Stand strong and stay steady
For when the time comes,
No one will hear anything
but the war drums.

Here is my entry https://steemit.com/poetrydice/@josediccus/poetry-dice-entry-you-re-my-balance
So many entries this week - I am so so happy!!! Can't wait to read them all!!!
Well here it comes then 😂😂😂😂😂
I was worried I would not get this one done in time. It went a bit long.
I tossed in some of my own insight and thoughts at the end in. Always more fun working out a dice you don’t know then asking for an answer!
