The Old Album

In the "Logical Circumference" photo album was an unexpected, outlandish picture of a scarecrow in a cummerbund on roller skates in a basement apartment with turtles in one hand and tomatoes in the other saying "make my day".
Next to the photo of Sugar paying the mortgage captioned " Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.

Yelve- 1. (obsolete) A fork used to carry dung; such a fork used as a garden tool.

And Now for something completely different. And we mean completely different.
First there is poetry- written well by a few experts. You know it when you see it.

Then there is poetic drivel- written by many. Lots of fun and often punny.

Then below them all is quivel.
The following is quivel.
It in no way even pretends to be poetry or drivel.
Instead it is something that looks like a poem, uses at least three of Quilly’s words.

In this case it is also a flash 55 quivel since it has eleven lines with exactly five words to a line. Please, again, note this is a quivel it does not pretend to be a poem or even poetic drivel.

Dog Poop

Dog poop fills the yard
Need to be on guard
Yelve to pick it up
Following after the little pup
Aeipathy could be the result
To the body an insult
When the poop is gone
We can walk on lawn
So bring us to patration
With a fully positive assertion
Leading to a massive celebration.
