Cryptic, wry humor, your wit knows no bounds.

-laughing- I love your sense of humour! This is just a hoot!

jadi, this is so clever, made me go to the glossary... now you've challenged me to try this form... Your poem gaved me a good laugh, but on a more serious note, it reminds me of dreams I've had, born of my old tattered guilted baggage, fear-textured and rebelbound. Sometimes it's hidden deep and sometimes just under the surface - but always there. Good one, my friend.

Definitely an "aha" moment here... you would never expect that last line. The first two lines predict some tragic occurrence... but no, it's the comedy swat team at work. Has a mock-nightmare feel to it as well, I have had real dreams quite similar to this, and I wake up laughing.
