Screeation Poem by Douglas Scotney
Screeation
Rating: ★5.0
Funny, 'rocky scree' is 'clapier',
and that too is a 'rabbit hutch'.
Perhaps it has to do with the poo.
As if a mountain is a landslide
waiting to happen,
'eboulement' say the French for 'landslide'
and for 'scree'
'eboulis'.
In that there lies some explanation
for why I'm calling a landslide
a screeation.
