2-4-2 Again?

Comment from Bill Schott
This 2-4-2, 2-4-2s Again?, has the right set up and asks the $64000 question. The answer is, of course, more people write and read the postage stamp poems, so they are encouraged. Yours, with its humorous cynicism, may win.

Exactly, Mystery Author. I am going to sponsor a contest--any topic with a I syllable word. Thanks for sharing a fun post. Your poem and picture pair nicely. Best wishes. Respectfully, Jan

One, one syllable word seems to be where we're headed to. Lol. Thank you for the great review, Jan. I really appreciate the generous stars. I'm glad you liked this silly piece.

-Good image and
presentation.

Maybe there will be a 1-1-1
or better yet, a 1!
-I like your take on the
form, and the syllable count is good.
-A very good ending:)

You are welcome, and your silly little rant was humorous.
Comment from Mark D. R.
At first read, I thought of the game of craps, but with your notes I recognize your cute genius. You selected a great photograph to accompany your short verse.
Actually, I do think 5-7-5 are hard to effectively achieve, but for the foreseeable future that is my poem format. Occasionally, I drop down to 2-4-2. LOL

Lol. Yeah, we all do. It just seems there's way too many of these little contests that don't require a whole lot of thinking. It takes a skill to say a lot in so few syllables but it seems those syllables keep dwindling down over time. Haha. I really appreciate the review and generous stars, Mark. Have a great night, friend.

Nice runt and I agree, before I joined this site I didn't even know that is possible to write such a thing:) But you put it well:"What, are
five, seven, fives
too hard?"
Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.
