TBWCYL Day 20 - Poetry

Today I had to write one sentence in a poem and email it to the people at www.thiswebsitewillchangeyourlife.com. Since that isn't an option, I am going to post it here. The instructions were to write the next line in the poem to follow "Mercy, cried the popinjay to the Pope..." It was meant to form the worlds largest poem and once the perfect line was found and a suitable title was made they would post it. It also had to be written in iambic pentameter.

I came up with, "your lies you told have sent me to the rope." Not the most logical but sometimes Pope's do lie and I can imagine a bird killing itself so not too drastic of a stretch. I searched to see if they actually did finish the poem but didn't find anything about it.

Guess they never got the perfect ending.

That is all,

Newt
