This is supposedly a Grook. If you don't know what that is I sugest you read something by Piet Hein.
Grammar Kicks the Bucket
Dots and squiggles,
Small black scribbles,
Full of Dashes,
And straight Slashes,
Quotation marks,
Just make my day,
“I hate you all,
So go away!”
Ha ha... cute . I love seeing people go apoplectic when spelling errors occur in forums...
So this is your own grook or Piets? Is he dutch or danish?
grok means ` to understand... '

Well, i'm quite certain that it's spelt Grook. At least in Danish it's "gruk" Gruk is the slashing of two words to form one. Grine- which means to laugh, and suk- Which means to sigh. perhaps that's the reason i think that Piet Hein is danish, but I'm not sure.
Yes, this particular piece is my own. some friends and i got together and composed it during an english class, rather than do our "real" work....:D
Sounds like a great class. I added the `grok' word meaning only because it's so close to `grook' in spelling but miles from the same meaning...
