If Anything Be
'Twas
bit
of a joke
for most
of the folk
that had
rallied round
the town
'twas
the first
I heard
a bit absurd
so I
went and
asked around
'twas
up the
hill and
down again
until
I found
my friend
'twas
then I
learned
he too
not heard
what rallied
round the town
'twas
curious
tad furious
that
neither
him nor I
heard not
a thing
about this thing
lest someone
told a lie
'twas
my
furtherance
bit
impertinence
that I forged
around
and about
insecurely
most
sincerely
that the
truth must
be found
and out
'twas
the
silence that
lead to
violence
from forge
to force
was I
did pick
and choose
what more could
I lose
but the
dignity
of a lie
'twas
an awful
shame
how they
play the game
be it
this way
or that
way or not
but even so
they gave
it a go
or where
it went
I really
don't know
like going
to a
picture show
and see
till the end
when it
all began
that started
this rigamarole
that what
you knew
was a thing
or two
that had
nothing to
do with you
so buckle
your shoe
and sing
howdy-doo
you fish
eye fool
IF
ANYTHING
had to do
with you!
***A PUZZLE***
***A RIDDLE***
if anything,
***FOLLOWS***
My wife's adorable, but her stockings made her
fallible. Broken nylons could cost me a kingdom.
Funding a family can be tricky, such as claiming
it was spaghetti but it was truly vermicelli. Zero
tolerance challenges as they learn it translates
to "little worms." Faceoff rank yielding terms so
finite, albeit, lacking: take 2 aloxiprin, cessation
of pain. Nonetheless, the sword of Damocles is
o'er our heads arose as winnable; you'll attack,
IMO, first. If anything, be anything, --then find
my seven kids' nicknames that are hidden aloft
in the lower aforementioned phrase, if anything.
