Do you like to play games with words? How about letters?

cooking in the kitchen

my poetry lies folded in the wrappers

marked for value sifted sorted folded filed

rejected accepted a line of strenuous dispositions

stretching from the keyboard to the kitchen counter top

and there the toaster pops up nouns

the pot bubbles with a verbal sauce

to my left some crusty prepositions browning nicely

i have some lightly steaming adjectives

mixed in with some adverbs for flavor

but a rattle heard a u tips over and pours out his contents

all over his neighbor poor l he stands up like a v

next the i shoots his rocket pellet into outer space

and trenchant t tips over and stabs nubile n right in the head

and this letter goes and another comes

on this notion of mine

and the poetry comes and goes and flows across the room

from the kitchen to the eventual reward

placement into the new material file

and while the keyboard's still humming

and the waste paper basket 's filled with crumpled corn pops

some crazy-wire insects crawl over the top

scrambling to regain their original designs

before they were so contorted

and pressed upon my page
