I penned a poem late last night,
I slaved and toiled to get it right,
With flowing meter and perfect rhyme,
A work of art, an ode sublime,
Editing here, and editing there,
A wordsmith surgeon, I worked with great care,
And then the bonanza, my poem complete,
I gazed in amazement at my odistic fete,
Poetic perfection straight from my muse,
Alas then it hit me, the darnawful news,
I'd neglected to do something, something so vital,
I wrote me a poem, without any title.

What could I do, I admitted defeat,
My only recourse, to hit the delete.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO  if I had a dime for every girl who said that to me in high school, I would be a millionaire rather than a reclusive, relatively unknown poet, (and it is pretty bad when even your relatives don't know you)
Wind, Let me be Frank with you, well, since my name is Tim, let me be Tim with you.  If I made sense, I'd Shirley be, well, I'd Tim be still, but that is beside the point. Actually, that was beside but and is, but it is of no consequence since I believe I have conclusively established I have no sense.

Tim, I think you had off one day too many, but in this instance, on you, it looks good.  I was going to say "What Helen said" but since you take such offense at a no, all I guess that is left for me is


YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
