Meeting Recap (from that one time)

First I'll apologize for being tardy in my handling of write club.
We had a brief meeting to consider our letters of encouragement. Our assignment through this week is to write into the world building file Jenn has so industriously provided.
Our homework is also this poetry prompt.
Choose a clichéd phrase ("fit as a fiddle," "think out of the box," "running on empty," etc.) and turn it around. Use the new meaning created by this reversal to fuel a poetic meditation.
