Meteorological Observation Post

by Mark Jackson

Is this a poem?

Or this?

I asked my wife did she love me?

Is that a poem?

She said yes

Is that poetry?

More than toast?

Is that a poem?

She did not answer

Does that make it poetry?

A man I met once;

said he liked me more than Toast.

Is that poetry?

I think he was talking about a band.

Poetry or Parody?

I drink scotch,

He lives in Scotland but doesn’t.

Is that poetry or irony?

I drink scotch and my wife hates it,

Is that poetry or aversion therapy?

I drink whisky and breathe poetry,

I breathe poetry and purity,

I breathe purity and chastity.

I drink whisky and no one wants me,

I drink whisky so no one wants me,

Is that poetry or irony?

Is it love or is it toast?

Or is it a forecast from the most

Northernly Meteorological Observation Post?
