Rumors of White Supremacy.
In that row, your column’s number…
Coining new terms in secrecy:
“Boing” (boring minus R) is dumber.

Coiled, then boing like a prompted spring,
Primitive poetic action;
Apes with crayons, coloring;
Hooting in dissatisfaction.

Leaves leave a taste like baseless fears,
Primitive prompts in lyric night.
BOING !  The Jack-in-the-Box appears—
Laughing at your illiberal fright…
I did not have much to work with...
PROMPT #6 :  Find the row with your number.
Then, write a poem describing the taste of the item in Column A,
using the words that appear in that row in Column B and C.
For bonus points, give your poem the title of the word that appears in Column A for your row, but don’t use that word in the poem itself.

Column A:  MINT
Column B:  BOING
Column C:  PRIMITIVE
