of side pony tails and doughnuts

[Truerenigma]

thanks all so much for your valuable input. =]
I'm with billy inasmuch as short lines or long lines both work for me. I generally tend towards shorter but can change that without too much issue. since this is a narrative, as pointed out, maybe longer is better. I'll play with it. my only thing is I'm generally happy with the content and don't want to change it too drastically, but I'll try to figure something out.
thanks all again.
ps this is a true story and I still remember what episode of Carmen Sandiego it was ;D

I used to love that show! Great poem btw very nostalgic for me.
