The Irritable Full Stop Poem by Raj Arumugam

the full stop
was quite irritated
with the colon
and he said to the colon:
“What are you doing? ”

And colon said: “What? ”

And full-stop said:
“Can you tell me what you doing
imitating me like that
and doing a double at that?
You look such a poor imitation of me
floating one above the other! ”

“O, ” said the colon, and continued:
“It’s plain to see, Sir –
you’re quite drunk;
you’ve had one glass too many
and you’re seeing double
like all drunks do…”
