Shortening Poem by Douglas Scotney
Shortening
'Up' is both 'high'
and 'more-advanced',
therefore double-meaning weak.
I blame 'more-advanced':
if it wasn't so long
it would not have turned into 'up',
and 'up' would have been just 'high'
...and 'strong'.
okay,
so it's triple-meaning pathetic,
'high' and 'strong'
and 'more-advanced',
and if that wasn't so long
it'd just be 'high' and 'strong'.
