INADVERTENT

Inadvertent... a hell of a word
As the subject for a poem
It's a word that's rarely heard
In a poem, much less a tome

I hadn't the slightest intention
Not even for a second
To bring this word attention
And then a challenge beckoned

So inadvertently, here I am
Adrift in a sea of verse
Writing this poem of spam
A most inadvertent choice
