Notes About The Poem

This poem is a lipogram - there are no E's. 

I Should Run From You

Cunning and tricky for a youth of today 
I was a fool to fall for your playful way
I should cut my visit but I don’t know how.
For your furious apology is a startlingly wow. 

Quit looking at pink stars with obvious full fair.
You are notoriously vain, this I can share.
I should run from the hills, saving my soul too.
But alas I am prowling and howling joy for you.

Wolf in your mind with dainty magic caravan. 
I am your minion, flapping in the sunlight of flair.
Sizzling for your touch, sparkling for you, my man. 
My zippy happy magi, luring my soul back to your lair.

I've heard of liposuction (lol), but never lipogram(s). Guess I'll have to check them out now. Thanks, Caren. :) gw
