The Measure

Poem

Immediately fun with
waived metal

with edges all sharp!
Rudely swing it,

stays and
like a sword,

slice!
Like a knight,

I bow,
it fights.

Says it. Says "life"
differently.

    Fun-the genius one! I would comment: A child entered the room, broke the black-and-white tension, all the figurines on the board flew with momentum according to the law of gravity. Who says what the name of the Game is and did He not own it all the Time? :) Tnx for Fun!
