Editor’s Note: One book editor famously compared poets to roaches. And I have to say I’ve found this to be true – that you see one, there’s probably others. Here’s the latest, (and a big one!), I found crawling around in my inbox when I turned on my monitor this morning.
"I feel I have really progressed artistically." Scot Bastian / Poet
MARY
(c)2010 by Scot Bastian
Mary had a little lamb
the doctors were surprised.
Then Mary had a litle cow
that one hurt, and how.
Next Mary had a little hippopotamous
though that seems preposterous.
Finally, Poor Mary had her fill
and she took a little pill.
The End
