Author Notes
Usually it's the snake that gets charmed.
This is a Brevette Poem. It is written in response to a writing contest prompt. I did not enter the contest, but was intrigued and am posting one now.
The Brevette, created by Emily Romano, consists of a subject (noun), verb, and object (noun), in this exact order. The verb should show an ongoing action. This is done by spacing out the letters in the verb. There are only three words in the poem, giving it the title Brevette.
snail
l e a k s
slime
Each of the three words may have any number of syllables, but it is desireable that the poem have balance in the choice of these words. Unlike haiku, there are no other rules to follow.
