A very nice avoidance of rhyming poets.

Which is an alternative sentence about blank verse.

Very good as per usual. I particularly admire the way you didn't do the obvious and have something that rhymes with phones at the end of the first verse.

Excellent! And now I'm wondering if I've been mispronouncing scones all these years...

Brilliant...love it!! My 0.05€:

A crackle of podcast bros,
A lie of startup founders,
A bug of vibe coders,
A cry of tech bros.

A grift of conservatives,
A stormtroop of educators,
A genocide of investment bankers,
A Trump of lies.

A dream of lefties,
A dam of environmentalists,
An action of activists,
A hope of dreamers.

A delusion of optimists,
A depression of pessimists,
A seclusion of extroverts,
A rave of introverts.

An abiss of despair,
A singulairty of dreams.

Yes! And how about a Hitchcock of gulls (or crows, ravens, cassowaries, what have you).

This makes me think of Kathy Fish's amazing poem "Collective Nouns for Humans in the Wild".
