N O P’s in Queue
Are sparrows really spare o’s?
Do they follow spare n’s?
Precede spare p’s?
Or is it spare o’s
as in
let them be
don’t use them
they’re tired
not enough
or up to snuff
so spare them please?
Or perhaps spare o’s
are extra o’s
left over so’s
spare parts
a lark?
I’m in the dark
need mental spark
so help me please
with my feathered needs
or no appease and cue.
