'Pumping Irony'

Kurt Philip Behm

Did you go

to the gym

the Poet asked

Or write

weakened

— words untasked

 

Vowels and

consonants

stay unflexed

When verbs

atrophic

— their letters vexed

    I like this one Kurt it is at the heart of poor communication skills with language unexercised and dwindling. Nicely penned

    Thanks. I've always thought of poetry as the 'weight training' of literature.
