King Baabu

King Baabu, The play of giants: Death and king’s horse man, The man of the people, The man died. Things fall apart, No longer at ease; Forest of thousand demons, Gods are not to blame. The year of locusts: Our husband has gone mad again, The black boy,weep not child; Hope of the living dead. An African night's of entertainment: The credo of being and nothingness. Contest: Get your scissors out: cut-up poems/word collage. Sponsor: Charlotte Puddifoot.

another very intriguing piece here; you created an effective atmosphere of sinister sadness with your arranged words; I particularly liked that last line - congrats on your win in my contest :)

hey, it held together pretty well if it were done the way Charlotte said to do it. I just can't bring myself to do this kind of challenge. I am too much into "order" of things!! But this comes off looking pretty well ordered!!

Wow, you have clipped certain lines perfectly my friend, giving new meaning within their new combinations! This is a hard assignment, one that I feel is quite difficult! And you have done masterfully with your contest entry! I surely enjoyed reading this amazing poem this evening! What a superior piece, Great Work!!
