Leaving Summerland

[Mark A Becker]

But the best, if puny, trick of this poem only exists depending on how fast someone reads the linebreak between the last two lines.

Excellent line break there; I paused briefly the first time through, then turned to the last line quicker on second read.

Most everything in society is codified: laws, signs, language, speed limits, etc... I try to be aware of my code of conduct depending upon the situation, and the company I'm in. While my demeanor can be described as offensive at times, I don't approach situations with malicious intent.

I'd like to see more of these short ones from you
