You are Free Verse (v1)

flow cat, the scat is in the waves
and the dames are riding
checkered yellow cars
yearning for a fare;
but what's fair when your
rhythm's unmetered and your
rhyme is unnecessary,
just occasionally there?

Cut and paste this on your livejournal or
send it to your friends! :)

The French poets of the late nineteenth century revolted against the tyranny of strict versification and established the Verse libre movement.
