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.

Check out another riff (or 2) on the alphabet…words…uh, yeah.

“and revert to grunts

I think that we are there, now.
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.
that prate is ship shape!
but no abbreviate…
for that we will wait…;)
VERY NICE

Mixing in the alphabet with combinations of poetic languages.
I like this poem very much. What inspired you to write this?
well…I love to twist words and letters–this is established and can be referenced directly at some of the links at this poems bottom (at the poetic butt, if you will…;) but ultimately? I just noticed how the V is like a slimmed down version of the W–the M the same to N–and B is really just a bottom heavy P…and so got to having fun with that–but then it led into my very real opinion that the language is degenerating hopelessly. I mean, if IDK becomes too tedious to “write out” what then?
I?
If you believe in V, M, N
why not establish K, Z, X, Y, Z as a enigma for language to nest inside the abstract?
You’ve made me think of writing something interesting. 🙂
I wrote about the K–Looks like a Duck

but i have to get those others…
and it wasn’t exactly an enigma…;)
Extremely versatile and sharp writing ! Excellent read! Bravo !
