No one was injured
in the making of this poem.
Whole families were not
wiped out by computer guided smart verbs.
No soldiers were fragged by friendly nouns.
No innocent bystanders were accidentally
gunned down by stray adjectives
from some random drive-by.
No women were beaten to death
by jealous prepositions
and absolutely no children
were harmed by conjunctions.
All stunts were performed
by professionally trained
parts of speech
to bring this poem to you
100% injury free.
