graphic nuisance
"Scars - the graffiti of violence."—Harry Dresden
i.
inkblots
make a rhymeless
timeless
meaningless mess
whose absurd words
and crazy phrases
make puns of nuns
with filthy habits.
ii.
the sorry lots
of word harlots
fill the slots
of bigots
whose hotspots
dot life's pages
with incomprehensible
rages.
iii.
crabtoe boldface fonts
are wont to tease
the muse
and displease
the queues
of listening ears
that find no recompense
in literal nonsense.
iv.
off-the-page
phrases
scrawled
on walls
in city halls
perpetuate
a plentiness
of emptiness.
v.
graffiti nations
find no gratifications,
for inkblots
are not
the spots
for the library of congress
to congregate
nor are they a gateway
to literary genius.
vi.
may the dye be dry
and the blot be not,
lest the page encaged
leaves the sage enraged.
