Heart of the City by Steenz for August 24, 2003

"Summer in the City" Poetry by Heart. Hey-hidey-ho! Where'd Dean's little swim trunks go? He laid them there so they could dry, a homeless man then happened by-- zippity-zippity-zed! Now Dean's trunks are on his head. I ran across the burning street, and now I have two burning feet. Flick Flick Flick! I have an ice cream cone to lick. Plip! Plap! Plop! On the sidewalk it did drop. And since the sun will melt it soon, I now must eat it with a spoon. This summer I saw some scary things, I saw a pidegeon with three wings! A scary dog! A scary cat! I even saw a scary rat! But the scariest thing of them all: a "back-to-school" sign at the mall.

The ‘li’ kerning in the first line of the ice cream poem lends itself to an interesting effect.

No way ants don’t crawl over that ice cream before she finishes eating it.
