Here's a sample from a longer poem by Michael Schein:
Not Saying the F-Word
You can't say the F-word at Thin Man Books,
It's a amily-riendly bookstore, illed to the brim
with delicate ears. It's like a church, consecrated
to the Word that can't be spoken. Children, exotic
bonsai, are ertilized, pruned and worshipped.
If you an't say the F-word then I'm almost
ertain you an't say the C-word either, but
you an probably say "suck" since every baby
does it and teenagers use it onstantly.
Whether you're someone who chuckles or laughs out loud, the cleverly chosen words and crafted language of Wicked Wits' poems will surprise and delight you. Enjoy.
