What do I have to do, to get more than a three-line poem out of you! ;)

How many different Pauls are actually present in this poem? (2)?

Yeah, only 2. I couldn't fit in "apall".

Thow hast mightily continued the fine tradition of provençal troubadour Arnaut Daniel.

Thine skills define thee
as a troubadour, mightily
a fancy sestina
journaled in a public arena
compense for a ride to your keys
this gesture of thanks is your fee
Art and craft
for Paul to laugh
spreading gamer love
to the one who pushes miniatures like drugs

A batch of lines, half smooth half rough,
.typed right in from off the cuff.
A wordwrapt smile to pay the poet
.for his sweet sweat, though he did owe it.

And now this saga comes full circle.
In future days a laugh or smirk'll
.sweep aside frail wisp regrets,
As a small mistake by and by begets
.a cascade of poems, from screen to screen,
.amusing as ever a pixel's been.

Remember how to start these grins:
When you get out of a cab, leave the keys in!
