There's No Uniformity To This Post

Prompts today are

1.) One Stop Poetry.  This site is definitely in a New York State of Mind.  I ♥ New York!

2.) The March Challenge.  Pancakes were first flipped today, so breakfast is on the menu there.  Yum!

3.) Big Tent Poetry.  The idea is to take an earlier work of one's own and do something 'different' with it, using a tool from their fun list of Poetry Toys.  I used my poem 'Little Willie #1', put it through BabelFish (translated to Japanese) and then re-translated it back to English.  And if you want to learn more about Little Willie poems, check this out.

Okay...ready?  Here we go...

 In A New York State of Mind

Souvenir

I have a small magnet of the Brooklyn Bridge

stuck as a memento on the door of my ‘fridge.

Curtain Call

Is there anything that truly excites

as much as Broadway opening nights?

Lincoln & Holland

It’s an hour long back-up, as the traffic funnels

across the Hudson, in each of the tunnels.

Twisted Little Willie

Little Willie #1

Little Willie said, "Bless you,"

when he served Nell toxic glue.

Nell got sick and died with haste.

Shoulda stuck to white school paste

小さいウィリーは、"言った; の"賛美しなさい; 彼がNellの有毒物質の接着剤に役立った時。 Nellは急ぎと病気そして死なれて得た。 Shouldaは白い学校ののりに付いた

As for small [uiri], " You said; " Praise;

When he is useful to the adhesive of the toxic material of Nell.

Nell could the hurrying and the sickness and you dying.

Shoulda was attached to the paste of the white school
