skeleton bones
rattle as they roam
‘til they come back home.
the last time i saw one
he, she or it shone in the sun.
he, she or it was having fun
until he, she or it shouted a curse
it was so much worse…
it’s supposed to be a skeltonic verse,
you dummy old bones,
stop all your groans.
go back to your graves in that thick thick thicket
‘til you find a poet who’s not dyslexic
Skeltonic verse consists of short rhyming lines that just sort of flow on from one rhyme to the next for however long one chooses.
