my commentz: thiz poem wuz a real challenge. not being able to use “e” made me really have to rethink what i needed to fill out my linez cuz i wanted them to rhyme.  for a few phrazez i had to reword them entirely from what would have worked great otherwyze.  i thought when i wuz done that it read a lot like dialect poetry, kind of like an Ali G monologue because of all the z’s.
