Six Word Couplet Series

An Uplifting Poem
Tornadoes lift houses 
Gigolos lift blouses

Breakfast Tongue Twister
Popstar tops charts
popping "Pop Tarts"

Poetry for Goats
Poets form words
Goats form herds

Goats Listen to Poetry
Poets choose muse
Goat chews shoes

Poet Gives Up on Goats
Poet wrote fair
Goats don't care

Wicked, Evil Grin
Word play criticism
Now say, "antidisestablishmentarianism"
