Giving in to a boring suggestion (Free verse) by Joe-joe
A highly enthused awl is presently making its way to China just outside my 10 X 10 holding pen where paper clips, loose change, and an empty soup container quiver like a martyr with badly timed second thoughts. Pens and pencils give into the fray While a wayward phone and staple remover stubbornly bore off temptation and I, less inclined to resist, il o h ae f y rmln rtes Yed t te ft o m tebig bohr.

Very readable...'a martyr with badly timed second thoughts' made me laugh out loud, for that this is worth a 9...very creative indeed!

lol. It took me awhile to get the "awl" but it works. "a martyr" should be "martyrs."

Ha--cute. Want to take on my upstairs neighbors who walk on hard wood floors in high heels?

I would if I could but you can see that I have:
"il o h ae f y rmln rtes
Yed t te ft o m tebig bohr." translated = yield(ed) to the fate of my trembling brothers...the guys in in office didn't catch the bouncing characters so I'm not so sure my little lettering play was detected here.
