Paradox
By definition, to irritate;
but easy on the palate.
The footle is a witty poem,
written picture rhyme.
Semantics seals its fate
We write to enjoy the style,
to sport, to bring a smile
from double meaning jest.
Gives our minds a rest
without defame or rile.
Colorful as a noun
to be put down
in the bottom of the box.
Victim of paradox.
Living in abject brown.

I have searched for hours and not found any definition
referring to the footle as a poem, or even as a noun.
No official recognition.???????????
