Jack Ellison Poet Rhyme

If Shakespeare Was a Souper

Each morn when the alarm says it's time to get up
To my Mac I rush to before pee
To see who's commented on my silliness poems
It's a good thing this option is free

Pretty damn sure paying a few extra bucks
Comments would be fairly rare
Let's all be realistic, my very good friends
Paying would make us not care

If Shakespeare was a Souper like all of us guys
Everyone would surely pay big bucks
To observe a great master's mind at work
And how our puny efforts do suck

So we'll have to make do without the “Bard of Avon”
Really happy to fill in for this guy
That must've sounded just a bit egotistical
Disrespect I didn't mean to imply

L Milton Hankins July 16, 2022 at 1:15 PM I can't even begin to imagine what else Shakespeare would have written if he had had access to a computer, a typewriter, or even a dictation machine. Not disrespectful, at all. Very thoughtful. Jack Ellison July 16, 2022 at 4:06 PM Shakespeare... he would still would have been the most amazing individual the world has ever known!!! Thanks Milt!

Jim Slaughter July 16, 2022 at 10:21 AM I can well imagine what Will's body of work would be like if he had had access to a PC or Mac and Word Processing. And I wonder if his inks and quill pens were tax deductible...A very enjoyable read, Jack. Jack Ellison July 16, 2022 at 11:35 AM Humorous Sir Slaughter! Much appreciated!
