Notes About The Poem

The Dye Area

The Dye Area

I'm really glad that ewe dropped buy
Eyed love two come out and sea ya.
But Eye really hadn't oughta
cause eye got the diarrhea. 

It makes four long and dreadful daze
and even longer knights.
I'm terribly concerned eye ruined
awl my Christmas linen whites.

I've opened every window
butt the odor's getting stronger.
I'm half the man as yesterday 
Eye can't take the shits much longer.

From racing down the hallway
Eye got noughts upon my head.
The lights whir off eye couldn't sea
and eye think the dog is dead.

Excuse me wile eye double flush
I'm sew week eye can barely sea.
Should eye bee gone tomorrow
St John has come four me.

Tell those I've wronged I'm sari
give my penance two the pour.
I'm afraid I'll halve two sit write hear
until eye can't go know more.

I thought myself a strong man 
but sew clearly now eye sea.
Never was a man on earth
as full of it as me.
