Oaf Poem by Douglas Scotney
Oaf
That sure sign
that you're dealing with poetry,
o' for 'of',
as in 'a glimpse
O' the blue above',
is not sure at all.
You could be under an oaf,
yelling your second-last sentence:
'Get off o' me you oaf! '
Two lines more:
from the long line of oafs, that sign
ne'er was sure.
Quote is from Browning (preferring the sky to the ocean) .
