K’ant

“K’ant make it fit!”
“Really? Why can’t you make it fit?”
“Don’t know, k’ant seem to do it…”
“Well, that’s a square peg.”
“Yeah, and I k’ant get it through the hole.”
“That’s because it’s a round hole.”
“That’s what I’m saying. I k’ant get it!”
“You can’t fit a square peg in a round hole.”
“K’ant ya? Seems to me that would depend.”
“On what?”
“On the peg and the whole.”
“K’ant argue with that.”

I’m doing the 2013 Blogging from A to Z Challenge! Pop back everyday but Sunday through the month of April for a new letter prompt to spawn my deranged ramblings! ;}

Funny 🙂 I love the interplay in words. There’s this whole change-up going on that I love. Nice!

  Well, it is good sound logic… for a 7th grader. LOL Feel free to snarf it up! Cute and quirky as it is, the underlying message is that perception defines most things. 🙂

This reminds me of Roethke’s collection, I Am! Said the Lamb. K’ant shares the same sweetness and cleverness of phrasing as the pieces in that collection. Nicely done!

  Thank you, Aniko! I’ve been wondering where you’ve been hiding 🙂 This was a fun little piece to clear my mind. I have some heavy writing to do, so a little playful brain scrub was in order. “Just” is pretty much the same thing, a brain cleanser. 😉
