Epigrams!

Hey, it's...um...Angelina...again. Anyways, I found a few epigrams, which are pretty funny, so I thought I'd share them with you guys! Enjoy!

A Politician
a politician is an arse upon
which everyone has sat except a man
---e.e.cummings

A Poet Defended
You claim his poems are garbage. Balderdash!
Garbage includes some meat. His poems are trash.
---Paul Ramsey

Leader
A man shot himself
in the foot

“OW!” he howled,
hopping this way and
that. “Do something!
Do something!”

“We are! We are!”
shouted those around
him. “We're hopping!
We're hopping!”
---Bruce Bennett

Angelina,

Some comical epigrams indeed. "A Politician" is certainly a litte more topical (and coherent for that matter) than the concrete poetry we studied by cummings isn't it?

Thanks for sharing,
Mr. G
