The exercise:

Write a four line poem about: missing a step.

  1. @Marc: I think the problem with supervillains is that they never ask "how do you want to die?" only "how do you fit in with my plans?" Although now I have an idea for a supervillain that does politely explain to his victims that their death is coming up sooner than they thought and ask them how they'd like it to happen :)

    Missing a step
    Jim's little accident with the radioactive dregs
    Of his coffee means he's only got a leg instead of legs.
    Although he's mostly mobile he continues to forget,
    His scheme to rule to the world is missing just a step....

  2. Greg - yeah, I'd read that for sure :)

    That sounds like some powerful caffeine. Hook me up!

    Well, maybe not. But there are days when I would be tempted to take my chances...

    Also: 'dregs' and 'legs' is an inspired rhyme :)
