Rhyme Time
AUGUSTA, GA. - I swig a huge gulp of my Diet Coke. Ahhhhh...
"I'm going to write an Ode to Diet Coke," I announce, with grandiosity.
(Did you even know that word? No. You did not. Learn it.)
"You should," A.C. remarks, rather dryly. They tire of my two obsessions: zombies and Diet Coke. Oh, but for a way to combine the two!
"What rhymes with Coke?" I muse. "Toke. Choke. Croak."
"Smoke!" A.C. chimes in.
"Ah! Toke, choke, croak, smoke... the beginning of a genius poem."
croak usually comes after smoke.
