Analysis of THE PRIZED MASTERPIECE POEM I AMNOT ABLE TO STEAL RATHER THAN FAIL



My great great great great great great
grandparents'

and
close friends
playmates

The fabric
chosen
and nicked from

by
their very
cats'.

Meant to forget it
disappointed by several
appointments

warned, time-dust worn!

INSPIRATION and MAL-TRIBUTE
