NaPoWriMo 2024, Day 7, Bro, WYWH

Today I was to write a “poem” titled “Wish You Were Here” (WYWH) that takes its inspiration from the idea of, and the abbreviated format, of a postcard. My poem should be short, and should play with the idea of travel, distance, or sightseeing.

Okay. But since some folks have no idea what a post card is or does, and others only know texting with its abbreviations, acronyms, and initialisms, I made a post card poem written by a texting generational.

Hint: Listen to audio as you read the poem.

Mind the gaps and the language of the text machines.
