 THE SPAM POETRY GAME
Round One


22 May 2005, 08:35:30 PM

Raise [the] surface [of the] North night earth

Paint a map [of] a complete letter field

 

I row energy ready for a bat and evening game

[While] other men burn life among dog and hat

 

I write a fast hundred letter thought

then sit again by [the] mile high captain

 

Either age [or] plant grow left interest art

Hand burn eye-- head will see

 

a little car must pass me widely sure

use much region [to] lay ground 

 

did end [the] need for [yellow] and

get [what] seem[ed] complete and was [its] own
