Is Not This the Brevity of Human Life- -

Is not this the brevity of human life? In my conciseness and exacting mentions The proper use of words in my writing or speeches, huh In awe, at naught-what Is not this the brevity of human life? While filling my mind of redundant thoughts Conciseness What, Concision Why, Succinctness Yes, Is not this the brevity of human life? Economy of the stock market crashes the economy clashes raise more taxes , huh! Language skill, consciousnesses, shortness IRS you either do or don’t pay your taxes; Briefness stills faithful wills, Pithiness jaunt, pith, incisiveness skills, Is not this the brevity of human life? Crispness words rips truths and lies spills; And we're all compactness together, And we shall compression compactness, compression forever (huh); Laconic, terseness, pointlessness, curtness, abruptness; (what) "This verse notable for its clarity and brevity" Shortness of time, why; "This verse is or isn’t the brevity of human life" This verse shortness, briefness, transience, What It’s transitiveness, ephemerality What!, Impermanence Huh?? Is, is not the brevity of human life-Huh What is not this the brevity of human life? Is not this the brevity of human life? 9/11/19 Any Poem You Want to Write 180 Words or Less Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Caren Krutsinger
