poem of eighteen lines

by nick nelson

my mom was a nice person she had a big head about as big as you’d find on a person her size but it didn’t make her a bad person my dad smoked a pipe all the time if he smoked liked that today he’d probably be taken out and shot but back then it was different people accepted him for what he was my sister nellie was a very ordinary person nobody saw anything remarkable about her at all not me, or anybody else but she finally got a husband anyway my brother joe was always talking about running away it was just about all he talked about but he ended up getting a job in town like everybody else and he never went anywhere as for me, there isn’t a whole lot to say so i’ll just leave it at that

poem by horace p sternwall

as i was walking down the street a surly beast i chanced to meet he seemed a stranger to civilization and had ideas above his station he fixed me with his limpid eye and asked me if i cared to die i held his gaze and answered straight that i was but a child of fate this answer quite amused the creature good humour liquefied his features and just as i relaxed my stare he disappeared into the air
