Sunday's Whirligig - Whirligig 177

Magical Mystical Teacher at Sunday's Whirligig give a Whirligig prompt each Wednesday. The link opens on Sunday, but we have until the following Wednesday to link up with our piece of writing that uses as many of the 12 words given as we like in our poem, short story, or other piece of writing.

This week it is time for Whirligig 177.

THIS WEEK'S WORDS come from "Counting" by Margarita Engle: white, jungle, record, parents, police, shanties, pretend, native, census, silver, confound, ditch 

old whitewashed records

pretending to be truthful

pure confounded lies

native drumming sound

loudly across the nation

booming injustice

jungles of shanties

policed but not very safe

parents beg silver
