JoelJosol Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Over 50 million registered voters are expected If you want to know where the sweet is, follow the ants to troop to polling places today. Not one ever hoards information or loot. They like to share. All in all, nine candidates want to be president It's hard labor until they die while eight are vying for the vice-presidency carrying loads of sweets into protected vaults. There will always be complaints but 85-95% Others are destined to mate first then die, success rate will be good enough others to fight to keep the sweet intact then die. Voter turnout is expected to be higher But there is one who needs to survive than the 70% registered during 2004 polls and for whom they live. The queen who wouldn't quit.

tonyv Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Clever, Joel. It's like watching two movies at once on split-screen. They are strikingly similar, almost parallel universes.

JoelJosol Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 Tony, I tried using metaphor here indirectly. Quote "Words are not things, and yet they are not non-things either." - Ann Lauterbach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleksandra Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Joel, this is something that reminds me on your style from earlier, the math poems :) . I mean by its construction, subject, and the sound. And yes is obvious that this is a metaphorical poem, that shows a lot. Very clever written and very reasonable, and thanks to Tony, I looked closely by separating the regular and italic lines, so here we have two different and wonderful poems, in one. Amazing and well done, Joel. Over 50 million registered voters are expected to troop to polling places today.
