Poetic Hardcopy (A Spoof) Poem by Nancy Ames

Poetic Hardcopy (A Spoof)

Rating: 1.5


The following item was broadcast recently on the syndicated T.V.show entitled 'Entangled Enigmas', included in the segment devoted to locating lost loved ones:

'Mr. Wilton F. Chillyman, fifty-nine, the great Canadian poet, is appealing to the public for assistance. He says that after all these years he would very much like to meet his fan.

For more than thirty years now, he explains, he has been receiving fan-mail from his fan, posted from various locations around North America.'

The aging poet then held one of these post-cards up to the camera. On one side there was a picture of a beach at sunset with palm trees. On the other, scrawled in large block letters, was the following message:

DEER MR. CHILLYMAN- I SHORE DO LIKE YORE POMES! I HOPE THET SUM DAY I KIN RITE AS GOOD AS YOO DOO!
YORE FAN
ELMORE (SASQUATCH) GOOBER

'Mr. Chillyman says that if Mr. Goober or anyone knowing the whereabouts of Mr. Goober would contact the good people who produce this program, he would be very grateful.'
