Inspired by Spambot – an international anonymous creative word collective that exists purely to comment and speculate on the futility of futility. Spambot also stands for Some Poets Are Merely Buffoons On Trial.
 

This poem had to undergo considerable editing to sift through the raw questioning, informal phrasing and convoluted word imagery that Spambot often throws up. I have boiled it right down to its bare essence to make stock for tomorrow’s soup.
 

A Simple Word

 
Cool word!
Is your word custom-made,
or did you
download
it
from
somewhere?
 
A word like yours,
with a few
simple
adjustments,
would really make my sentence
SHINE.
Please let me know where you got your word.
Kudos.

 

Thank you, Spambot.
