49er Nuggets, New Form Options

[JustDaniel]

49er Nuggets are poems of 49 syllables arranged in 13 lines of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 6 5 4 3 2 and 1 syllables, stating a 'nugget' of wisdom, perspective, insight, information, etc. preferably with a twist.  A proper Nugget is to be Titled with a word-twist of some variety as well.  I 'invented' the form in Dec, 2004.

Here are a three examples:

ore naught

why
would I
e’er attempt
to make a mark?
is there a purpose?
should I merely aim to
spread a little serendip?
it teases me to forge
limp, bleating poems
seeming pointless
‘till they wake
renewed
Light

in form I’ll query

Why
would I
want to kill
ambition’s will
by ripping form up;
would this freedom limit
me or others banging heads
to get our feelings down
in printed booklets,
each with pages
bound in one
accord,
no?

‘s no fun

snow
falling’s
delightful
if you see clear
across your driveway
or don’t work this morning
or have waked at a ski lodge
but if you’ve got two feet
and wife says ‘shove it’
it just feels cold
as it blows
on red
nose

Have fun!

Sorry Daniel, didn't mean to be so obtuse. Yes, it was a reach but I hope my explanation will clarify. To start, WADS WORTH denotes what numerous wads of paper would be worth in breaking possible falls. If there are enough of them, they will pile up around your desk to cushion and to keep your face or butt from hitting the floor. The ending, "no harm site" denotes the areas around your desk where falls may occur and which are covered by ripped up and wadded pieces of paper.
I know it is based on a cartoon picture in my mind where "foot-thick" piles of paper, "which you probably don't use", form cushions around the desk although you seem to be the type of person who makes sure everything goes in the trashcan and not on the floor. Like me, you type most, if not all your writing on the computer. I got the idea for this one from your last entry of going "kersplat" on your face or "tookis". Sorry about the confusion and hope the explanation doesn't detract too much from my efforts to amuse.
Larry with a mental condition!
