How to be original!

Perhaps write in Aboriginal, just walk about
The house like in Pups Lagoon, Mangu-mi-Raka.
Then arfter maybe snap a wrist, compose in
True pain.
Maybe write upside down,
Or outside of town:
On a knoll
Or a bend.
Or beneath a pavilion like a poet.
On a butchers slab, a museumed
Guillotine, or a lovers drunken gut.
Always signed:

Sincerely,

L poet.

Aren't you supposed to be "the outsider"?

Loved this, a great satirical look at artsy types. From "Aboriginal" on...

nice, really love "Or beneath a pavilion like a poet."

I am wondering though, if you could do without the 2nd "Maybe" in there? I love it the first time with "snap a wrist" but feel "Write upside down" could do without it.

A Freudian slip, perhaps, Kris?

Do you play the violin?
