A penny a piece,

A dollar a dime.

A thousand words written with one line.

Blam! Thwak! Pow! Crack!

Black shadows on blue, 

Blue shadows on black.

Geometric lines,

Design,

Define,

Your eyes.

A story inverted,

Imagination perverted.

Adulterated imagery,

Yet literature it remains to be.

A childhood fantasy.

A colorful drawing.

Propaganda or just plain lunacy.

A statement and an art.

A story in one's heart.

No cherish for leather. 

For comics are cheap.

Thus value remains in a solid line of ink on brown paper.

A penny a piece.
