About This Poem

Last Few Words: Something Concrete to work on just playing with words again. Damn the format of Neopoet doesn't work.. Please take it off and copy to word then centralise... The hilltop republicans they-sit-in-their-separate-houses-to-govern aloof above the Washington's esplanade Lincoln watches from his monuments eye as the new world turns and people pass us In-time-step-by-step-we-will-sort–this-great-country-out I-trust-in-hope-that-liberty-and-love-will-bring-this-about Yours Ian.T

It took a while to sort this out you would think I would have known by now that the format changes when putting on stream.
Hope you can read the damn thing it took a lot of work, Yours Ian.T

Am I correct that this resembled the capital building before posting? I know I've given up on trying to post form poetry here lol........stan

Yep it was supposed to be the building on the hill but as I say you have to take it off and centralise it on word or some such creature, You would think I would know better by now LOL
Thanks for your visit, Yours Ian.T

I assume you know that but maybe using HTML is possible? As it is its rather weird and almosr wonderful for a few words until you realize its all gone wrong.
