-A Little More Gossip



I have a little more gossip to share with you
Again about the alphabet
There is unrest amongst some of the letters
Creating stress and letter upset

Now, Z has major anger issues
Due to an inferiority complex
Being the least popular and used letter
Z feels a complete lack of respect

O is also not a happy camper 
Though O’s situation is different to Z’s
O is a raging hypochondriac
With constant complaints of illness and dread

‘O poor ,poor me’ O cries
I have this and that and you letters are all so unkind
The other letters in  frustration often yell out
Stop acting like an O-hole, O“ its all in your mind”
 
Now P has a troubling medical condition
With ongoing bladder infections
Continually P’ing and feeling down in the dumps
Desperately in need of medical interjection

The alphabet board have now formed a medical support group
Called, I C U…..It will….  B O K
To help Z , O and P
Reclaim their health and once again stand proud in their alphabet array

This is something unthought of . Now only I have begun to think of the miserable plight of Z, P and O. How marginalized they are. Glad that some urgent steps are taken to ameliorate their miserable condition. Greatly applaud your sense of humor, dear Deb.

What clever whimsy, Deb! I just love it especially your great personifications! And it is a great PS to your original poem. Made me smile and grin ear to ear. Here's to restoration for POZ as we pause to give them their due! Blessings!

What a do love about Z is how along with A, holds eternity. So should Z feel inferior, he must remember he protects the interior. But O…lol! O cries…O no. And P definately needs help. A very funny and entertaining write! Poets already know the alphabet is fun. Hugs, Deb!
