Challenge
Write a poem between 10 and 75 words correctly using as many homophones (eg. there, their, and they're; soul and sole, hear and here) as you can. Extra brownie points for the ones people seem to misuse the most! And. . . . Go!
America’s Energy
I look the part
Egyptian whore
Whose eyes
Are rimmed in kohl.
With aching back
And worn pick axe
I mine Kentucky coal.
It may be true
I raped the earth
To earn my master's gold.
I did it all
To earn my bread-
On the pitch for the rich, I goaled.
You label me a Gangster
Like I "chose" this destiny
But the O.G.
(Original Gangster)
To fear
Is America's "Inner G."
