Excellent

This poem illustrates ten poets with different characteristics. Every one is different and has different characteristics. One is rich, one is poor, one is intelligent, and one is foolish and so on. This is one's reality of existence in the present state.

I asked Tom to add this post to the book Joy Graham is assembling as a letter to Brooke. Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Oh I liked this and cackled all the way through, what a funny poem, and each verse kept me smiling, as I was thinking of all the different styles and subjects written about. Clever Cheers Christine

Funny, as usual, Red. My favorite stanza:

Seven poets writing
in meter that clicks
one had to insert "did"
then there were six.

I had in mind to contribute this to the book for Brooke, then thought maybe I was too rough on the poets. Thanks a lot for reading and reviewing.

Comment from Gloria ....

Excellent

Red! This is excellent and why didn't you put this in the get well card for Brooke? She would be thrilled to read this perfect and hilariously entertaining counting poem.

Reverse syntax is one of my all time favourite elimination tactics. LOL and the conjugation of to do, did.

LOL, this is absolutely brilliant. I love it! See if Tom can move it over into Joy's book, pretty please.
