Epigramme: The Lazy Bystander

The lazy bystander saw dust blow

He looked askance and never cared to know

Whenceupon a curious reporter scuttled past

To inquire on how it happened, to leave him aghast!

Epigramme: Poets

Epigrammes consist of a rhyming couplet or quatrain. They are satirical and witty. Their defining characteristic is brevity.

My example:

God created poets, poets and words He created them,

For one could not live without the other.
