They say a space in cluttered mess
Suggests a sign of genius mind
And hurricanes of stark excess
Surround the thoughtful, guileless kind.
The handwriting of quickest wits
Is ugly, swift, and lacking bits
Of letters, punctuation, ink--
For we write faster than we think.
postscript
DFC day 23. I WILL finish the remaining poems before tomorrow at midnight. Just maybe not in order. Rispetto: an italian form. Can also be written as a "heroic rispetto" in iambic pentameter. I went with the un-heroic, side-kick sort.
