    Carter called again today,
    Enquiring of his ladder
    But I rushed past him through the door
    And blamed it on my bladder

      I am a bowl, chipped at the rim
      you snag on me
      scratched, sore
      but still you sip
      the heat
      the salt
      you spin me to a smoother spot
      and try again

          @brianbilston words are structure is life. When I stop breathing, they breathe on in my place.

              I think the problem is they don’t rhyme.

                Carter called again today, enquiring of his ladder
                Each time he comes around for it, he's angrier and madder
                It was his father's pride and joy, his grandpa's treasure too
                He'll rip your heart out when he learns you dropped it in the loo!

                And why'd you choose to use the ultra full-strength bleach?
                Ensuring that restoring it was now quite out of reach.

                Why start with the biggest part, to try a new technique?
                That acid did not leach the bleach, it made the ladder weak.

                What made you choose "Remove the screws", as the next thing to try?
                There is no doubt, Carter finds out, and you are gonna die!

                And trying to burn the acid out! Well that was really dumb!
                When Carter knows, well, I suppose he'll knock you on your bum.

                A chainsaw now? That's not the tool for fixing massive burns!
                I do not plan to be near here, when Carter next returns!

                That YouTube short was just AI, there are no real-life hacks
                For assembling a pile of chips by hitting with an axe
                If I were you I'd sweep that pile of splinters off the floor
                That booming sound, I guess, is Carter pounding at your door.

                        @emmadavidson Ha! At least they will be there in the records for future generations of political historians to ponder over.
