Yesterday's post was not an attempt at silly typical blog-poetry. It was just me getting carried away with a stream of consciousness about my day start to finish.

I was going to put an example of ridiculous self-indulgent bloggerous poetry here, but all attempts to satirize a little stanza seemed too real. Nothing went far enough. So...

For the first time, I shall place a request for reply here: in the comments, write an example of bad poetry about some aspect of the war. Desire for peace, objection, love for war, end of the world, whatever. Put yourself in the person of a bad songwriter, an angst-ridden teenage outcast, or any person with a blog and make me laugh. One rule: Nothing that in any way disparages our troops in the field. I deleted two posts about that.

Other than that, don't be afraid to be offensive as long as it's funny. Chop chop!
