Subject: RE: BS: What Constitutes Good Writing?
I pretty much abandon most of my poems. But here's the last one I wrote, just for fun:
Pie are square, a noble man Once cleverly opined But I don't see how that can be As pies always look round to me.
Behold the cobbler! Bubbly and hot, Baking in its juice - Usually cooked in a pan that's square Or otherwise rectangulair.
Pie are round, cornbread are square, Or so I've heard it said. Although, cornbread may oft be found To have been baked in a pan that's round.
Pie are square! Still they insist, And so on till infinity; So round or square, whate'er your choice Let us now the humble pie rejoice.
