Use Any Font You Want Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Use Any Font You Want



Greed, theft and genocide.

'No.
That is incorrect.
I specifically told the printers,
That should read: Genocide, Greed and Theft.
Alphabetically.
And in bold print.'

What difference does it make?
We are protesting worldwide atrocities.
Not the correct placement,
Of words to be printed on posters.

'And
Look at the font!
I told them nothing below a 48 point font.
That's clearly a 16 pointer.'

Trust me
The police will not care,
If that font was 64 points.
We all are going to be arrested,
For creating a public disturbance.

'I could care less.
Send them back.
When you organize your protest,
Use any font you want.
And another thing...
I requested green on purple backing.
Not purple with a green backing.'

What about the T-shirts?

'Get them on the phone.
I will handle this myself.
Absolutely nothing is co-ordinated,
To produce the effect I expect to get.
Am I the only one around here,
Willing to put my head on the line
For the little guy? '
