The assignment was to meditate on a single word using the Oxford English Dictionary. One could probably guess what word popped to mind.
A limit laid down
Intercommunity of various sentimentsA limit laid down
Na persoun sould intromet thairwith
Satisfied the curiosity of the astonished black
And Naked shaking to shew his indulgence
Flourishing despite infection with the sleeping sick
Capacity of a tree to endure catholicity of spirit
Tamarack, Poplar, Bird Cherry, White and Black
Ash borne without producing gastric symptoms
To decorate with all the splendor of panegyric
Trees give way as water drops below standard fineness
Throwing a veil over the deformities of a product parameter
Imperfection with the instrumentality of Perfection
Under control, or to use a more Christian word, charity
How the metal cools and can be withdrawn
To what extent “dancing girls” forbears euphemism
No such thing as a literally harmless dose of radiation
love the comments! you should incorporate them in the final draft!
ReplyDeletethey certainly embody the spirit of the poem's title more than the poem itself!
if anything it's a great exercise in lifting limits.
who's tolerating who here?
