by
Bob MacKenzie
the poet wrote flat out
stacks of words and lines
like slim breakfast steaks
without a word of a lie
or metaphor or simile
added to enhance his beef
which much to his surprise
while raw was not read

editing excess a specialty
free trial first lesson tells
all or nothing more will be
required plus wife excellent
