A Poem That Plays With Words Lacking Their Usual Prefixes
 Poetic Wordplay Open in new Window. (E)
Free-verse poem using words devoid of their usual prefixes and having changed meanings.
#2086375 by Harry Author IconMail Icon


The above free verse poem which I wrote yesterday has a playful use of words devoid of their usual prefixes so they have changed meaning. Reading this poem requires a bit of thought to spot all the words lacking their usual prefixes and to translate them into their changed meanings.

I hope the readers will make a game of it. Happy hunting!  A tad bit of poetic license may have been involved in the writing of this poem.  *Smile*


Have fun!
