Formula One Poetry Adverbs on your Mark! Nouns get ready! Verbs and prepositions get set! There's the green light and they're off! All words accelerating at an astonishing speed! the crowd goes wild at the roar of the sound of accelerating words. Nouns and adverbs and verbs advancing with prepositions following closely behind. Hold on to your hats, and fasten your seat belts, folks, this is going to be one long sentence, a wild race to the finished line. Three words pull away from the pack and the clear leader is Jim, followed closely by House in 2nd place, they are moving at an amazing speed now moving up into 3rd is Buys an Buys an, Buys an, accelerating making a bold move on House, on a hair pin turn, Unbelievable!!! cuts in front of House, House has to slam on the brakes to avoid a collision of words... House is obviously infuriated with Buys an, as he interjected between Jim, and House in such a reckless manner. And so we have our top 3 leaders Jim in 1st place, Buys an, in 2nd place and following closely waiting to make his move is House in 3rd place. Wow! We can see this sentence coming together as we start the 3rd lap... what spectacular action folks, who knows how this sentence will end at the finished line!! Now look who appears on the scene! it's Better, Better now moves into 4th place, behind House House sees him coming looking over his shoulder anticipating his move but looks like House has some trouble keeping the pace as Better, accelerates and makes his move and has no problem in passing House. Looks like House, is having some kind of mechanical trouble but is holding on. So we have our leaders: Jim is in 1st, Buys an, is in 2nd Better, has now moved into 3rd with House trailing in 4th position. After 4 laps the sentence is taking shape with Jim securing his lead, and setting a blisteringly fast pace with no rival to usurp his position. Now look who appears in 5th place challenging House, it's Even, Even is moving at an incredible speed Even passes House with ease and now looks to challenge Better, Better, better watch out! Even, pulls even with Better, but Better... thinks he's better, and won't quit. Even has even more power and surpasses even better than Better. Wow what a race! As words jockey for position, there is a bitter rivalry between Even, and Better, however this time Even has gained the upper hand. So our leader is still Jim in 1st Buys an, is comfortably in 2nd, Even, moves into 3rd, and Better slides back into 4th with House following in 5th place, but who knows if House can hold on as we now see smoke billowing out from the back of House. Who knows how long House will last or even if it will make it to the finished line. Now look who appears as we enter the 5th lap! it's Than, and Than is closely followed by Bob. Than and Bob accelerating, pursuing the pack, and catching up to the leaders as we head to the final stretch heading to the finished line. No one can catch Jim as his noun is just too powerful on this day! And there you have it folks the checkered flag and the winners in order are 1. Jim 2. Buys an 3. Even 4. Better 5. House 6. Than 7. Bob What a competition! And the race goes on! What will Bob do now! John Derek Hamilton August 2, 2016
