HUBBUB
by Robin Boothroyd
After completing the O section of my suite of univocalist poems I was worried that the U section would be the hardest. And I was right. No pronouns or articles this time.* Ouch! Well, here goes…
***
Hubbub
Plump gulls must sup.
Suck up luxury hummus.
Chuck up burgundy mucus.
Lungfuls. Such tumult!
Dumbstruck ducks cuss.
Sun
sunk thru cumulus
unfurls.
Cumulus turns succubus.
Succumbs.

And there we have it. Read the other poems in the suite here. And stay tuned for an audio recording of ‘Oiseaux’.
*well, technically I could use ‘us’, but I didn’t.
Love this. O too. So.very.clever.
