andru235 making love
to a giant yeti
would be easier
than turning this blathe's title
into a poem.

but i set out,
i set out, i said,
to create poems
for whatever blathe
i first arrived at via "go"

and here i now sit,
sulking.
if only the title
had been 72 or 74 days, instead!
THEN making a poem
would have been EASY.

alas,
now i know how the yeti feels,
threatened with my love-making "skills".
