it's a poem |
| Meter is Neater That funny type of wit that can expose Itself as purposefully polyphonic prose Is so much neater, when placed into meter. Even random raving rants simply sound sweeter. The “bumpa, bumpa, bumpa” beat of Pope Should give any aspiring artist hope That even your mangled and off-beat tries While never necessitating a Nobel Prize Would only end up sounding even worse If not carefully crafted into cadenced verse. |
