The Statue Spoke


Let's start the year with some homophones!


The Statue Spoke

Marble?
Marvel
A stone spoke
As tones poke
Fun at pigeon's
Funny pitch in
Parodies of flight

This lip inflects
These slips in flecked
Fated granite
Faded grand, it's
Imposing
In posing
For so long a time

He's never grimaced
He's never grim as
The wanderers
That wander or
Fall to pestilence
(Fault to pest elan)
Persisting
Per cyst in
Stony permanence
