Prelude To A Metaphor



  A piece of metal
  half shiny 
  half rusted
  etched upon it
  is a poem
  about...
  why the poem
  was etched upon
  a piece of metal
  half rusty
  half shiny

clever

and very poetic in an eerily audial, mysterious way--the found object provided with a poem on the inside. the novelty of this is brilliant. great job!
