Bardic Choice Poem by Douglas Scotney

Pre-bard,
onto 'I've read Ulysses',
I'd tack an annex:
'Except for the brothel episode'.

As bard, I tack 3 more:
an annexment, an annexation and an annexion.

An annexure - 4.

Thoughts about dead bodies
that you couldn't stop coming
after the body fell out of the coffin
onto the strand
(and Shakespeare's and Spenser's 'strond') .
You may as well add value to them
and put them into poetic lines.
Or are they shocking enough to stand?
and stond?
