Hiya Gypsy!
Such a splendid feast for eye, ear, and mind! You have such a way of taking an idea and giving your fans a multimedia experience like no other! Thank you for this post to Marilyn's poetry prompt!
---I must ALWAYS comment on your excellent taste in visual design. So many on this site don't have it, but to me, you are the Queen of Visual Poetry!
---You manage to give us a tour of all the superstitions that are bubbling on the surface of our culture.
---I LOVE the song "Superstition." It is permanently in my playlist. This song along with "Kiss" by Prince are the epitome of funk. If anyone ever wants to know exactly what funk music is, they should play these two songs. Anyone who doesn't move their bodies in some way to these beats is not a human. It's like a rule or something!
See you again soon, Gypsy!
Patrick

Ohhh, this is a GOOD one, Gypsy!! I love the poem itself, but then adding the music video with Stevie Wonder that reiterates its mood and message is like the perfect cherry on top!! Exceptional work! I thoroughly enoyed this. xoxo

Thank you for sharing this club entry with us. I have numerous problems but luckily for me being superstitious isn't one of them. I do know plenty people who it's a problem for. You did a wonderful job writing this entry.

I love Steve Wonder! His music was a big part of my teen years.
It's so interesting why there are so many superstitions. I think it's because life is so unpredictable and we have no sense of control. Humans made up superstitions to give themselves a sense of control of what could happen if or explain why bad things happen.

Another fine poem, Gypsy------and I think you've covered the biggies, you forgot, however, the superstition about never read this unless you're naked and you count to 13 out loud first!

Comment from RJ Heritage
Such things bring so much unhappiness. I have witnessed this truth first hand where people were led to being falsely accused based on superstition. Your depictions of many of these superstitions are vivid and well presented. I thank God that I was raised in a home made me aware of many of the crippling effects of superstition.

Very nice Free Verse poem for this week's prompt, naming a wide variety of superstitions and topping the cake with Stevie Wonder giving his take on the subject musically. Unique presentation with lines that flow smoothly even though they are unmetered. Only good things to say.

Absolutely right! Superstition ain't the way! It locks us into the past and has no logical sense unless you're walking under a ladder of course. I happen to agree with that one:)) Excellent theme for the season, as ever beautifully illustrated. Take care, Gypsy. Debbie
