as elsewhere (  a  p o e m  )

…

as elsewhere

a swift swoops

ivy climbs

a rose droops

a lamb springs

a pea shoots

a poet

an owl hoots

a thought forms

a train toots

a yo-yo

loops the loop

an ear hears

a nose snoops

a mouse roars

then makes soup



a man's wronged

the press smear

a storm brews

a head clears

a faun falls

oh dear deer

a hard bard

they shake spears

a star's born

an end nears

a bat shats

a wheel steers

a shallot

it sheds tears

all elsewhere

but not here


sorry
