MY fINAL ROPHALIC


Late August afternoon
Still trying rophalics
brain working constantly
sweat dripping
cheekes reddish ablushing
crushing peanutshells
too many cigarettes
dear teacher Nanniness
counting syllables
poor Dutchie
warm outside
nice sunny afternoon
I'm crazy
now trying rophalic
September
new challenge

LOL

Titia ,
A fine picture you have drawn here . I can almost see you crouched over your desk , ashtray over-flowing , pencil chewed to a nub , gazing out the window , wondering what insanity you've gotten yourself into that prevents you from being out in the sun . Been there myself . Good work .

hey, very very nice work Titia    I enjoyed this one a great deal.
Like the Doc I was impressed with the imagery and tone, I'm grinning.  Maybe try some painkillers to get you through until our next assignment.
Let's just hope it's not something like double acrostics...

Reading over my final here
Saw I made this faulth so queer
Wrote Rophalic instead of Rhopalic
Must be the heat that gave me this tic
