PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

a lattice faced man

from too many trips to the

dermatologist I'd say

Pin Head's twin

a 'Hell Raiser' in gray

pin striped that is

and with numbers

an accountable whiz

a man of short stature

but tall in ideas

some come from others

but most of them his

like how to comb one's hair

with a vacuum cleaner

and twenty-seven new ways

to make a meal out of a

wiener

with breadth nearly that of

his height

he seemed almost as intimidating

as deputy Barney Fife

yet one could not forget him

even if one cared to try

for he is the man who reminds you

of the high school nerd

that everyone knew

what an unforgettable guy

so, I say hats off to you

Crimson Cromwell

this ones for you

you're a poet's piece of pie............
