Spam Poetry
April 30, 2007
As I suspect you do, or at least hope you do, I have an email account that I use when I don't want to give out my own address. I checked the account today for the first time in several months – I had more than 4,000 urgent emails waiting in my Spam folder – and decided that deleting the unread messages wouldn't do.
Instead, I've compiled a poem for you from the subject lines of a few choice emails:
hows your love life
your guy could use this
embark in the dewy chronograph of heterostructure,
a wanton women
Answers Now on the Distortion of Evidence;
Benefit from Technology
At first I thought he was a wild animal, because he wore around his waist and over his shoulders a ragged piece of bearskin.
For once Love comes to you!

That's probably the most those SPAM subject will actually be looked at! (It's definitely much more enjoyable that way than reading them in my inbox.)

Distortion of Evidence is the only one that sounds even vaguely original.

That is better than a lot of poetry I have read in my life.

Best line I ever saw in my spam folder was:
"Do you think cats and bats could ever get along?"
Good question, viagrarocks. Good indeed.
