Oh Captcha Squares

Oh Captcha Squares

A Poem by Schatz

Oh captcha squares, oh captcha squares The objects captured by your frames Oh captcha squares, oh captcha squares Why must they gotta be the same? Cars and busses, traffic lights Bicycles and motor bikes Crosswalks, signs, and steps and stairs Fire hydrants everywhere Boats, planes and parking meters Tickets, fines, misdemeanors Why are you so fond of these? Why are palms the only trees? Oh captcha squares, oh captcha squares The photos that reside in there Oh captcha squares, oh captcha squares You paint a world so bleak and bare Arid, bland, unaesthetic Barren, drab, unpoetic Sterile, cold, antiseptic Unconcerned, apathetic Somber, sad, and desolate Woeful, bland, pedestrian Weary, grim, dreary, hopeless Grainy, gray, out of focus It doesn’t need to be this way… Many things could fill your squares Why not fill these things in there? Tambourines and castanets Bass trombones and clarinets English horns and piccolos Harpsichords and xylophones Fiddles and Irish whistles Jingle bells and finger cymbals 5-string banjos, mandolins Saxophones, accordions Confucius and Mandela Cassius Clay, Cinderella Charlemagne and Genghis Kahn George and Ringo, Paul, and John Twain and Edgar Allan Poe Wayne and Brando and Monroe Ida Wells, Frida Kahlo Steinem, Parks, and Ferraro River Thames and stormy seas Winter wrens and bumble bees Cyprus, ash, oak, fir, and pine Sassafras, willow, and lime Daffodils and magnolias Marigolds and begonias Cabbage, beets, and potatoes Carrots, beans, and tomatoes If your pictures must remain It’d be nice to change the frames Captcha circles, captcha suns All the captcha olygons Wiggly captcha twiggly lines Twisty captcha twiny vines Captcha diamonds, captcha hearts Captcha clovers, moons, and stars Captcha ribbons, Captcha lace Captcha colored string bouquets Oh Captcha Squares, Oh Captcha Squares We understand you're here to stay. Oh Captcha Squares, Oh Captcha Squares Just be more creative, OK?

Oh yes, this is so funny...
However dear Bob I think it would be easier to read if it were broken up... like a poem
I see you have 21 view and only I am reviewing... so I do think the fact that you do not have more reviews is because it is I said difficult to read...If that makes sense... Would be so easy to change...I love the whole concept of those silly Catch Square.
