everybody knows
that he
started out
and
wound up
The Wound
question is:
what took him?
and what way?
a long way
on foot
it took him
Took him on
another question:
why stay?
A Quest
the obvious answer
he got tired
Right here

This poem was written in response to Impromptu #9 by Frank Montesonti. This is an erasure poem using two different highlighters. My source was page 8 of Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli.
