A November Poetic Challenge

Here is an interesting challenge for Sage Cohen's book.  Thought I would throw it out there for anyone interested in giving it a try:

"What dictionary definitions might you improve upon through poetic reinterpretation?  Choose three words from a dictionary: one you admire, one you've never heard  before, and one that has never appealed to you.  Write a poem about each (or about their definitions--my addition).  See where this leads you."

Have fun!
