Straight and Narrow -Formally Test

I have
Been
Relegated
Condemned
To follow
The straight
And narrow
Path
Of Poetic
Minimalism
I shall not 
Stray
From behaving
In this way
Its the straight
And narrow
All the way
From now on
For me


Straight Arrow

No more
Than a few
Words I can
Say
Its the new
Style
Of Poetry 
DONT stray
I shall abide
Keep things
Straight
Narrow
Like
The Indians
Arrow
I shoot this
Poem
Over your way
Do not laugh
Nor should you
Play
From now on
Its the straight 
And narrow
All the way


If you wish

Spaces

That’s ok too

As Long as

You know

Straight and

Narrow

Is still for

You

That’s the rule

So don’t be blue


If you cant beat them join them!!!!!!!!!!!!



Notes: The
formatting issues of
short lines and
double spaces seems
to be fixed, however
if anyone needs help
to fix their posts
feel free to email
me, be happy to
assist.

I stand corrected, there still seems to be issues. However, it seems if you post 
in the Chrome browser is ok. I have tried in in Firefox and sometimes it works, 
and sometimes not.
