Nigh on ninescore year hae I
Preside o'er thaes city faer
But i' shoundna be me on thaes stule
In Mad King Gaerge's Squaer
In life a saemple claerk o' law
Who frae Edinburrah hael
'nd 's kent tae woo thae lasses
Wi' an auld ramaentic tael
Naw I set upon mae paerch
'nd watch Glaswegians pass
'nd time again mae eye doth fix
Upon a bonny lass
Thaer be but one wee aeggravation
I 'ud gladly tae shed
Faer I'ud rathaer dae wi'out
Thae seagael on mae haed

A poet see beauty:
in the field of corn
in the mist-filled dawn
in the face care-worn
in the image still-born
eap(eep) is a list cinquain where L1 is a statement followed by rhymed L2-5 that amplify thae
staement with words introducedby 'in the' by the ' of the'.I labelled this an eap after Edgar
Allan Poe as it is inspired by sililoqy in this format in the conclusion of his essay Poetic
Principle.

To My Brother, Steven.
I barely stopped and thought about,the way we used to be
But now I find and realise,how special you are to me.
You used to try to look out for me,because you are my brother
And I don't think,that in this world,that there could be another...
So loving and so caring,so protective and so true
As what I had found in you.
You'd pick me up,when I was down,
And when you were not certain;
You'd look and search,and try to find,thae part of that was hurting.
Then when you'd see,that you could make the pain in me go away
You'd crack a joke,and make me laugh,and hope I'd stay that way.
I hurt you sometimes badly,and said things,that were't true
But my brother,I just want for you to know,I really do love you.
So I'm saying that I'm sorry,and asking to put it in the past,
And let's be brother and sister again,and be happy together at last.
