holopopomo day 25: two hundred


So here we are.

Today’s Horribly Local Poor Poetry Month (HoLoPoPoMo) entry celebrates web...blah...log’s 200th post:

two hundred

Two hundred things can be a lot
Except, of course, when they are not

Two hundred cents is just two bucks
Two hundred drakes means lots of ducks

Two hundred crumbs won’t make a loaf
Two hundred I.Q., not an oaf

Two hundred seconds is but a flash
Two hundred hams makes quite a hash

Two hundred point is one huge font
Two hundred pounds is hardly gaunt

Two hundred years is history
Two hundred dollars, far from free

Two hundred beaus, oh you coquette
Two hundred pages, mere novelette

Two hundred miles, you’ve traveled far
Two hundred swings is over par

Two hundred hairs, you’re nearly bald
Two hundred texts, you’ve barely called

Two hundred nuts will fill a bowl
Two hundred calories in one roll

Two hundred dogs will pack the pound
Two hundred beans is one small mound

Two hundred posts from this mind of mine
Is just one plus one-ninety-nine

Two hundred things is quite a lot
Except, of course, when they are not

The end.

Yes indeed. Welcome to me.
