Poetic Thoughts - Dude's Attachment and Walter's Advice - by C.W. Pruitt II

Fresh Poem on Dude

The poem below is about 'Dude' from The Big Lebowski. If you haven't seen the movie, then it will make no sense.

The poem was written on a day when I go out to lunch with Alan and give him some new columns for the Broad Ripple Gazette.

So, this latest bit of insanity is about as fresh as my column gets.

Incidentally, I would like to dedicate this poem to all of the people out there who have seen The Big Lebowski at least 50 times.

Dude's Attachment and Walter's Advice

It was Dude's attachment

to his rug

that proved

his dismay.

That and he listened too much

to Walter.

Dude said.

"The rug really

tied the room

together."

And Walter's energy

led to the disarray

(As an anti-thetical example from above, it was totally Dude's fault for getting kicked out of the cab.

That was his business, Dude -

Even if you hated The Eagles).
