wordless wordiness

Blog Posted:7/14/2020 9:58:00 AM

i want you to write a poem using no, none, nada, devoid of, WORDS.....use your imagination, your emoji's, your poetrysoup profanity hash tags and symbols. Feel free to be as verbose and seamlessly sensual as you like. Be as offensive as possible as no one will be able to read or understand a "WORD" of it.

((and before the blogosphers goes bananas ...."this is a joke son---a joke" (my apologies to Foghorn Leghorn)
