Here in it's place stands this Pantoum where once no grain of truth was found gone now once more what was assumed did fall with a dis-chordant sound Where once no grain of truth was found a house of cards full built on mirth did fall with a dis-chordant sound as tested rules would prove their worth A house of cards full built on mirth who's foundation had no support as tested rules would prove their worth o'er what it's builder did purport Who's foundation had no support which sentenced house of cards to doom O'er what it's builder did purport arose again the truth to loom Which sentenced house of cards to doom but in that moment turned around arose again the truth to loom for joker/king to be re-crowned But in that moment turned around gone now once more what was assumed for joker/king to be re-crowned here in it's place stands this pantoum |

 What did you eat that makes you write one Pantoum after the other? Great job Doc!  |

Can we please change the subject? Dr. Moose is starting to show off with his perfect pantoums. He's got ten right ones to my one wrong one Does he get extra credit for that? Liz |

Munda , Ok , it's time to fess up , I was having way too much fun trying to side-step the rules and in the process may have confused some people ( myself included ). Very few of what I've written are actually Pantoums . I think the actual count ( if you include the one in open 11 ) is four .You bird-dogged me all the way , and as a result , really helped keep the real definition in focus .Thanks again , to say it's been fun would be an under-statement . See ya next class ! Doc |

Liz , Again , guilty as charged , but I'm not sure about that extra credit . If you average in all the incorrect ones I'll be lucky to get a passing grade . Thanks ! Doc |

No wonder you're "institutionalised".  See ya next class Doc, although it could just as well be the 'Stute.  |

If I could make a real pantoum From house of cards that is but doomed I would in fact a castle build With aces laced in golden gild But nothing can inspire this mind To even forge a pantoum-mime I guess I flunked, it’s just no use I leave the praise to Dr. Moose (Hoping we'll move on to something a little easier) Anonymous |
