Free verse to Clover

Lynn Daue has asked for a new book spine poem. This time I raided C’s bookshelves. Give it a try…it’s addictive.

It reads:

 

Chloe,

Shopgirl!

What looks like crazy on an ordinary day

Taking time off, into thin air

Power over stress, sex, drugs and cocoa puffs

How to become ridiculously well-read in one evening

I was told there’s be cake, ham on rye

Now you know more

Seriously…I’m kidding

Now you know almost everything.

Yawn!
