Which is which?

When is a poem a poem?

Sometimes a poem is only a story.

Maybe the story,
  is a part of some spoken word.

Now,
  if the spoken word  is simple advice,
  or a word of hope.

Does this bring us back to a poem of life?

Start with a question?
We all hope to know.
End with the same?
When you pee in the snow.
Do you spell out your name?
Just a suggestion,
Perhaps I'm insane.
Or maybe infection,
in the poetical vein.

Very nice teaser. It inspired this bit of whimsy.

Thank you, sir. Needed a laugh. I guess this is what you can expect from writers in Arizona!

As it has been said "Laugh and the world laughs with you." As far as AZ., it takes one to know one. Being outdoors most of the time here, makes my humor a little dry.
