and the beat goes on... (abecedarian)

by David R Spellman


Acoustic bedevilments
collectively destroy
electrically fretting guitarist’s
hopeless improvisations –
just killing licks
mindlessly.

Nonsense!
organists proclaim,
quickly reverting,
skillfully trumpeting
undulating vibrations
with xylophones
yawping zestfully.

Abecedarians seem indeed very trendy right now. They are so darn hard to do! But you managed more than well again! Great read David.

You write with such talent in so many forms. A humorous and evocative poem.

What an undertaking this form is, and you did it oh so well, David. Maybe I will take a stab at it.

Wow... now that's an abecedarian. I'm awed.
