    The Climber's Poem

    I have to climb
    To make ends meet
    My whole body hurts
    But mostly my feet
    Standing here on these spurs
    Sixty feet in the air
    Watching a thirty foot top sail out
    Seem to wash away every care
    Standing here high above
    On this limbed out spar
    Is the most peaceful place for me by far
    But back down I go
    To climb one more
    For that the thing that keeps the wolf
    Away from my front door

    I like the way your enjambment breaks the syntactic flow. And I must agree, I feel ya, bro'. Cause the rain in Muskegon that's blowin your way will keep you out of the trees all this live long day.

    That's why I would take this 'advise sir'
    Become a 'supervisor'

    Heres mine : Cheezus Heist what is that idiot doing down there , The boss always sticking me with him this so isn't fair , Wow it really is even so ####### hot up here, when I get home I am going to swallow a lot of beer, sometimes I wonder about my poor career decisions , I am going to wrip down this gutter with the utmost precision
