The Long And The Short Of The Whole Show Poem by Scarlett Treat

The Long And The Short Of The Whole Show

Rating: 2.8


IF I were six feet tall,
I wouldn't be short
At all!
But here I am,
Down
Close to the ground,
And as
Big around
As I am
Tall!

Dedicated to Whistle Gal

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

POETIC BRIEVITY IS AN UNDERESTIMATED ART WITHIN THE ART, KIND OF A PENUMBRA OF SORTS...YOU TAKE 29 SIMPLISTIC WORDS & SPIN THEM INTO A TRUE -LIFE PICTORIAL ENGLAZED WITH PRONOUNCED IMEGEWORX...AND VOILA...YOU'VE ACCOMPLISHED POETIC BRIEVITY IN A BEAUTIFULLY MOLDED CAPSULE...NICE JOB SCARLETT...FRANK/FJR

Now now, Oiseau Rouge, I suspect that you're selling yourself short! Love this one. It's tight and pithy and very well written. Allie la Chatte XXX

A cute 'short' piece indeed. But hey - if the legs reach the ground, who cares? ! ! ! I like this. Don't know why it appeals. But it does.
