Surviving the beat on a line

Surviving the beat on a line

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Never argue
with a period,
full stop!

And never trust 
a comma on passing
you’ll be tripped up.

Never ask a question
a question
you won’t get
an answer.

Remember,
semi colons and colons 
don’t respond to
colonic irrigations.
Just saying.
