Old Poetry brought back to life...

And now...by special request of Matt...my old poem:


WOODPECKER



He

Hangs around

In trees all day

Making those toy machine-gun sounds
Poppity-popping the succulent ants,

Red and black,

That flee along canyons

In the weathered bark like

Residents of some sci-fi

Town running madly down

Crowded boulevards

Escaping the

Wrath of

Godzilla.

  1. Well...this silly blog doesn't allow me to shape my poem to make it look more like a woodpecker, but I think you get the general idea.

  2. That's one of the only problems I have with the Blogger website, the fact that editing your files the way you want isn't entirely possible. Maybe I should write and complain, or would that make me completely and overly anal?
