did
you
ever
hear
the
one
about
the
guy
who
fell
from
the
sky
like
some
violent
angel
being
kicked
out
of
heaven
by
Jesus
Christ
himself?
you
know
the
one
that
ends
with
him
landing
on
the
nightly
news
while
we
idly
watch
as
he
begins
to
tear
the
world
apart
one
day
at
a
time
one
man
at
a
time
one
a
time
left
right
left
the joke's on you.

Assignment: This is the poem I chose as one that I don't think is as successful as others I have written. I've been working on this one for almost two years now, and I just don't think I have it yet. The breaks never seems quite right, and the second stanza I think could be worded differently. I have omitted the last line several times, but added it back in for this assignment just to show what I'm working with. I'm trying to create the sensation of falling from the sky, but by doing so I read this poem extremely fast when I say it out loud. Maybe one day I will wake up and figure out what needs to be done, but as for now I play around with this one every other month or so...
