Fun piece to keep the mind working and the ideas flowing.

hmm,, ok, quite well done for a word game. Please don't be offended when I say it doesn't work for me. Perhaps because I suck at these type of things.. lol, but I do appreciate the craftsmanship. I've never liked poetry for any other reason that poetics. I guess I'm an old fashioned snob about it, and if so I plead guilty as charged. You did a good job with it, it's clever as hell, just not my cup of tea.

A Kansan plays cards, calls Marshall
a crawdad, that barb lands that rascal a slap;
that Kansan jackass scats,
camps back at caballada ranch.

Hangs kack, ax, and camp hat.
Kansan’s nag mad and rants can’t bask,
can’t bacchanal and garland a lass,
can’t at last brag can crack Law’s balls,

Kansan’s cantata rang at that ramada ranch,
Mañana, Kansan snarls, I’ll have an armada
and thwart Law’s brawn,
slam Law a damn mass war path.

Marshall’s a marksman, maps Kansan’s track,
calm as a shaman, sharp as a hawk,
Says: That dastard Kansan’s had
and gnaws lamb fatback.

At dawn, Marshall stalks that ranch,
packs a gat and blasts Kansan’s a*s
and Kansan gasps, blasts back.
A flag flaps at half-mast.

:) some wheel and some won't
these are such a challenge ... just starting to think of something got me only two lines ..arrrrgh!
E.
ps alas me lass! i can not find the link to the class! :( if you have it would you send it once again?

pss and yes we wheel ...every time eh!? i especially like the third verse ... the stench with the wench and wrench and stent is striking in contrast to me ..powerful emotive word associations in that verse says i! :)
