For the unfamiliar, Magnet Monday is a magnetic poetry series I do where, every Sunday, my readers vote on the topic of the poem. Over the week, I write a poem for the winning answer, and then share it the next Monday! By that time, the next poll will have already been decided, and so the cycle continues.
