Practice is Imperfect

Cryptic  Poetic

On my way through a thicket,
I was given a ticket
for driving way much too slow,
so I floored to the board go,
went gone my reward, for fast
was light-speed beyond pace past.

This 'poem' still needs a lot of work just to achieve mediocrity.

  1. It's cryptic, but mainly because I'm trying to unravel the meter.

    Cryptic Poetic

    On my way home through thicket,
    I was given a ticket
    for driving way much too slow,
    so I floored to the board go,
    went gone too fast at long last
    at light-speeds beyond pace past.
