Me Poet

 
 

Thinking in terms

of “character” traits

does W envy the V

for her Waist?

since plainly

V Vainly

watches her slants,

the W tried

but W can’t..

And what about M?

does it Make her Mad?

that N’s always Noshing,

but Never gets fat?

as all letters know

M Moder-ates Much,

whatever M “ate”

was Merely enough…

The same goes for B

who’s Bothered by P

’cause B is as Basic

to meals as can B

He Broils

and he Bakes

But Blasted

P Poaches

stealing the Battle

of Bulge

with aPProaches

and gloating–

P Pairs,

and Pigs out

on blankets

wraPPed around aPPs

found

around franks

—It’s no wonder

that speech is

deteriorating!

with such letter envy

and such letter hating!

Clearly impelling

a global truncating

–of petulant words

that need separating,

’til finally one day

we’ll boot acronyms, too

and revert to grunting

as cavemen would do.

  1. “and revert to grunts

    as cavemen would do.”

    I think that we are there, now.

  2. Casey and K C poach from the boat and went to vent, but their Mate Ate Nate and left him to his fate on a date. But he was late to skate. So he had to wait for his bait. He did hate the gate because of his gait. Too much on his plate. So I shall deflate and extricate.

  3. VERY NICE
