Subject: LL-L "Literature

> Now, here's a poem I once wrote for a teenage friend on a bulletin board
in
> Oregon who claimed that I "just did all that humorous rhymin' stuff"
because
> I simply didn't know how to write more lyrical, verse libre poetry. So I
> wrote this poem just for him, to show that I could - and I got away with
it!
> Everybody loved it, they were so overwhelmed with it's sheer beauty that
> nobody had a closer look at the content... I tried it several times later
on
> good friends, and they all really liked it, but almost nobody (with the
> exception of my daughters who know me best!) understood what it was really
> all about...
>
> So, let's see what you make of this:

I give up. Help me out!

Yrs,
Mark
