Here's a very cool way of making boring things seem weird and interesting. Alliteration is where the first letter of every (or at least most) words is the same consonant (not a vowel!). This is used in many famous tongue twisters:
She sells sea shells on the sea shore.
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
and so on...
Let's make up some ones about Whyville! :-D This'll be fun.
Mad Mark makes microphones moo.
Naughty neutral knits nothing. now neutral's nose knits noodles.
Akbar adds apples at Anchorage. -- actually, that's
Cobd can't count clams 'cause now cobd carries credit cards.
See? It's fun, and it can help you make some weirdly awesome poems. So have fun
and keep doing alliteration.
This is cobd, catching clams 'cause clams catch coaches.
