What am I?
Partly animal,
mostly something else;
who am I to say
what I am?
Too many questions
for a Sunday morning?
How many – what percentage –
questions are rhetorical?
was that one?
Do you have to answer that?
Do you care?
Is this poetry?
Would I dare?
Are there rhymes?
Is it written in any recognisable poetic form?
Is there a discernible rhythm?
Does it use assonance and dissonance
in the correct quantities?
Does it avoid the mention of Quantum Physics?
Then it probably is a poem?
Did that last line have an unnecessary question mark at the end.
¿Did that last line have a missing question mark?
¿Was that last line written in Spanish?
¡Yikes!
How much of the above is wrong?
Has this gone on Forfar too long?
