Poetry meme

[gordonzola]

Well, there's that poetry meme going around. First off, I must direct you to this wonderful Cheese sestina that I read over at chzmongrrrweeps. I laughed. I cried. It was like they were writing about my life.

But, in the spirit of things, I'll type one by George Kauffman.

May Day Unsung 

Pardon us,
     we seem to have taken
     a wrong turn. May Day
has become unsung,
    the Red Square 
silent and the technique
    of the West
has overcome the will
    of the people.
    We are six workers
          in search
    of a revolution,
          and we shall
               bury you.

now go post some poetry in your own LJ.

The

 stands for "preformatted," so whatever you type between 
 and 
 appears just as you space it.

Also, more.

argh.

that's "whatever you type between PRE and /PRE appears just as you space it."

it also shows up in the typewritery font unless you specify otherwise.
