Pote's Krevice
A jpt reader took the poetry of Jonah Shirley Purr as his personal challenge to hurl verse. We agreed to his publishing demands provided one of our art interns be allowed to illustrate the piece as he or she felt moved. The result is what we term a show.

Mike's poem

Mindfully Revolving

 Mike & friends on the town, at table
Mike moves among friends
A habit can be either a friend
or a foe-- (Mr. Habit tied off to shoot dope)
If one's habits are good,
One will certainly grow (3 stages of child growth)
Sometimes happiness is attributed to deities,
Oboy, Manna! Deity, manna in barrel, happy guy
and other times nothing (zany grinning face)
but good habits are to blame for all things that are comforting.
good habits are to blame for this couch- relaxing
Even a habit regarded as neutral in nature, I'd deem as being good.
GOOD:sitting, flossing. Bad:kicking,osepicking
As long as it doesn't degrade one's character,
it contributes to a house built of sturdy wood.
bad habit whining degraded Chauncey's character
Assuming that's true, I'm willing to make a bet, most habits are nice;
the rest pose a threat.
Pik-1: crowd of "do-me"s, gunman, evil chainsawer
Best beware of the bad and uproot them with haste,
lest your green grass be suppressed by encroaching weeds wanting space.
Sunshine's field of dreams now sucked: sad waterer
