What do you do while waiting for the optometrist? Create poetry using the eye chart letters, of course, using each letter to start a word.

Here’s what I had to work with:

OHNFA

GOCSZ

KSBHO

BAPOER

LRTCGO

…and here’s the poem:

Creating a Universe out of Limited Resources

Oranges have no feather attachments

God only created six zebras

Kiss several blossoms, heavy one

Before any power or energy rage

Light rings can glide overhead

Oh hell, Narcissus, fine answer

Gift of chat, says Zeus

Kneel servant; be happy obsessively

Backward ambition; panic echoes relentlessly

Let reason trick cacophony, go on
