Ear Worm

DITTY stuck in my head, like a
BARGE, moving but not seeming to.
CANON says such songs must be bad, but
GOLLY, I like it despite myself.

Post-Carbon

COAST is still, first stillness of centuries,
AWOKE an older day, diesel gone, ebbed away,
CLOTH sails unfurled are now for trade.
ANNEX past to present, rig masts and harness wind!

The Library of Alexandria

FILTH litters the halls and courtyards, all
TRACE of its former glory gone.
STONY faced librarians, not jobless, finger the odd
FOLIO that managed to escape consumption.

[This one inspired by the most recent Rest is History episode.]

Abridged

The

FILTH in the first
FOLIO that left everyone
STONY-faced, has been excised in the second without a
TRACE.
