140 Shorties" has a way of bobbing and weaving along, from item to item. Each versification is truly brief, relatively speaking - no longer, usually, than about 35 words. A special little approach [or 'recipe'] was used in terms of the actual composition of the entire aggregation, so, for one thing, an evident rhyming between some titles might very readily be seen to exist. Maybe about half of the included 140 pieces are rhymed and about half unrhymed. Aspects of rhythm may be detectable, but blatant meter generally seems unlikely. Here are a couple of perhaps representative samples: Dogs daily seem to have managed. From the earliest of life's moments a dog's howl emanates fiercely. In the lust and luxury ruling the planet few canine barks might be unperemptory. Hogs that were called became appalled. The human condition implied sedition. To be a pig stayed rather big, but snout on snout wanted out. A true main sorrow was mere tomorrow.
