Trochee-Percy's Pre-Dic-Ament

Percy's pickle pointed west
Larry's pointed down
Little Mary looked perplexed
Percy grinned and clowned.
Mary's small feet kept abreast
Larry looked around
'Till a tree limb snagged her dress
making Mary frown.

Well, yeah maybe I can and well, I did not write that poem for the contest. I dont write specifically for contests. Most of my poems/stories are when I "hold my spirits" lol... you know what I mean? So, I just came across his contest and therefore, I entered. Winning or losing doesnt matter. I write randomly and not to win/lose but cuz I cant hold my thoughts in my head, especially, when my spirits want to escape from me... lol... it's just that words come to my head and I put them on. lol. hugs

1)Finished 3 large Carlsberg, 90ml JW, 4 shots Absolut mins before I wrote that. Well, nobody knows when I'm drunk or sober. I know,kinda eccentric,so I can understand why I "didnt" sound drunk. Also,it doesnt necessarily mean that words should "beee likkee dis wen a persn is draaank" 2) I'm Agnostic; therefore I hold no interest in following Holy Books. And I dont "struggle to write". 3) Baffling = Sarcasm (but in a positive/friendly way) since it was simple (cute, nice) Hugs, love and peace :)
