Half-bake for 15 minutes


Here's my response to Steve's Fifteen Minute Poem Challenge. This is what happens when I automatic-write. :-)

Easy Assembly

Note: just be the one to fix it
in a perfect way. Open self package,
action already undertaken to read
herein. Parts warning: you may
be missing! On clean trable,
scatter pieces as like ocean wave
unto shells. Spread resolutely
glorious glue upon right angle
of first wood crossback, not
to be sticking one’s skin. Apply
select component in most fitting
manner with joint interlocking
and unyielding. Beware broken limb
where lurk splinter demon! Press on
all part until body stand complete,
remaining items can recycled
or disposaled. Put product to work
living everyday easy for people.
Okay, you are success!

good job!

i was going to try the 15 min thingy, but i just was not feeling it that day. couldn't write a vowel to save my life. next day, whattayaknow, wrote two poem things without much effort. guess thats why im not a journalist. pressure paralyzes me.

Hi, Jenni:

Glad you liked it. Usually anything I write in 15 minutes is at best a nice idea embedded in hopeless crap. Here, at least I got the good-idea-to-crap ratio a little higher.
