A Poem by Cameron Berry

Screeching howl at a crumbling pie
The key lime bluebird
defleckting spotty accusations
Haven't ya heard, haven't ya heard?

Misty naughts blind 
neither nautilidae, neither night nor the day
Spiral enveloper built its niche
upon good and evil and nothing
Haven ya hear, haven ya hear!

Fluffy cliches prowl the grasslands
Coyotes on peyote, arrived one stop too far
These are not the sheep you are looking for
Elusive elysian fields, where are they found?
Heaven, you herd...
Heaven, you herd...

Land, Sea, or Sky, 
in the end:
You die,
you die,
you die.

',,, not the sheep you are looking for
Elusive elysian fields, where are they found?
Heaven, you herd...'

This really is a true play on words, on sound, on how to open parenthesis and let it join in! Reading a second time i realise the cleverness and fun.. wit.. running start to finish. You must have a vereee interesting mind!

Man, this is awesome. Not only did you step out of the box you grabbed it and dropped kicked it. Poetry with so many avenues and possibility. Great job!

Wow! This is so insanely interesting I do not even know where to begin! For now I will save it in my read file to gravitate to from time to time because there is something so oddly satisfying about the format and diction that I can't quite put my finger on but I am suddenly craving more! Great and most bewilderingly splendid write!!!1
