And Then Came The Denouement

And then came the denouement Not how my poem was rated, I did find it was recorded By machine, and was being read— Like a car moving in one gear! Yet, pleasant still it was to hear, If not by readers, machine read. I listened well without a let Till came sonnet ending couplet, And what was just an underscore, I wish it were en core, en core! ___________________________________________________ A budding poet had placed some of his poems on a poetry website, which added an audio to some of the poems. A machine voice read them. A line drawn with underscores to it was only a series of underscores, which gets read faithfully. He, a dreamer, hears it as en core, en core! ______________________________________________________ Humour | 24.03.2017 |
