Write an intelligence poem
A
stranger,
color of
pink applesauce,
walk into a bar
takes a seat, orders drink
and calmly removes his head.
Bartender says, you can’t do that.
How will you drink with no mouth? Are you
stupid. Creature points to his three navels.
Only your race drinks with their mouths, Headless
says, arranging his six legs to form
a circle. Patrons stare, scared
stiff. Where are you from? You’re not
human. I’m far smarter.
Creature chuckles. Because
my IQ is art
-ificial? Seems
you are far
behind
us.
(with suggestions from PoemsofGardenGnomes)
Love the stranger the color of pink applesauce!
