Boot+Kitty=Poetry in motion

0 posted 2000-12-28 02:52 PM


I've had enough of this mushy stuff,
Where women sigh and men are puffed.
Give me a saga of daring and dash,
Where titan meets titan in a clash.

For example....

Where Balladeer dons his latest garb,
Chartreuse and cinnamon by the yard.
Where Toerag tries a pink brassiere,
For his hairy chest that hangs down to here.

Where Kethry's pants hug on legs,
Made for somebody half her age.
Where Sunshine's shoe on her left foot,
Would only match her missing boot.

Where Nan's sweatshirt sways too much,
Showing me what I must not touch.
Where Rainbow's blouse in ugly plaid,
Meets with stripes of blue and red.

Where Martie's shirt of emerald green,
Meets with her corset of baleen.
Where Corinne's leather of submissive black,
Meets with her blouse made of sack.

Where Liz's yummy and pokie shirt,
Meets with her tie-dye hippie skirt.
Where Wilfred's sweater, a turtle neck,
Meets his waist (whatta wreck!).

Where Doreen's dress of yester year,
Meets with her worn and frazzled hair.
Where Pandora's Box is opened wide,
Leaving us in fear of what's inside.

Where Marsha's sense of taste and class,
Meets with our sense of "Run!" and "Dash!"
Where Marge Tindal's latest attire,
Promotes we should fight fire with fire.

Where Denise's clothes of bright sheen
Turn our complexion a sickly green.
Where Shadow's uniform of black,
Makes us think of a dog attack.

Where Ron's hat perched on his mane,
Makes us think he needs Rogaine.
Where Seymour's hair comes to an end,
Rogaine is far too late for him.

Where Sven dresses for all to see,
Much like our sweet Serenity.
Where Nakdthoughts' prim repose,
Clashes with her fiery prose.

alas.....

The poems of love post unabated.
The clash of titans seems underrated.
And so I must sift through each writing.
To find the poems that feature fighting.

Where are you Xena and Hercules?
Where are your feats?  Tell me please.
I'm dying here in all this sighing.
Bring me the titans and their fighting.

Priss and proper
I'll not be
for in the cloak
of unbelievability
I'll show you the scenario
of if and when to hell you go -
Fight fire with fire !
You've rung my bell ...
Watch out there LongJohn, my friend,
we've a little devilment waiting
just around the bend !

Where's my boot? Where's my shoe!
Gawdalmighty, I haven't a clue...
Let me look right here next door...
under LJA sitting on the FLOOR!

HEY you get your hunk up off my shoe
or this day m'lad you shall rue!
and let me have back my boot!
that's where I stash all my loot!

Now quit peeking in for all to see
the lassies as they dress for thee...
methinks you're a scalawag to write like this
when you're really looking for a smooshy kiss!

So go to the one who makes you swoon...
see Lorelie quick, twill be none to soon!

Long John my dear now you done it
insulted all and tried to pun it
a titan clash is what you'll get
for being rash, you'll sit and fret
and wait and wait till posts come in
denying you, flaying your skin
I hope your skin is thick because
we'll convey the never was
we'll take a pound of flesh be sure
and leave you crying on the floor
a clash you want a clash you'll get
although you may live to regret
my pants are half my size, not age
now don't that want to make you rage
you missed the boat, in provoking write
now watch your back all day and night
Long John I see you quaking in fear
don't be too scared the Titans are here

Worry on, until we're done
Keth

lost in blue pages

oh my, what have you seen,
better ask what is unseen
of all the blue pages inhere
thought that written words disappear
or that it would fade away after a while
but you used words and thoughts with style
wrapped with a teasing touch of imagery
or was it meant more sinfully
yeah Clash of Titans for a fight
would gives me a sleepless night.
so I will watch the show from here
Titan Clash can't upset me.

But the pen is mightier than the sword.
and thank you for leaving me safe in the garden where the only clash I feel is the swoosh of the next love poem!  I could, however, use a new wardrobe so feel free to let me have it!!!  (The wardrobe, that is   )< !signature-->

He he I escaped that one..... go get'em tiger you're a brave man..but then the fighting world will understand...to each his own to get a rush..if titans do it then reach out or bust...but if love is suffered through this droll...I can't go there it's those soft ladies I want to hold...may all the fighting serve you prowess...but it's those ladie's kisses I like best....woo hoo I like a guy with guts...still with the same woman...I mean c'mon man you can insult Balladeer, Sven, Mark or Seymour, even me why would we care? ... but those ladies have a certain mystic magic that permeates manhood like the scent of apple blossems on the breeze and sometime makes the man weak at the knees. You know they've got all those things we like to hold and squeeze......look don't mind me I'm so glad you ain't dead!

Ahemmmmmmm....

I came upon the passions scene
Unaware of jealousy, green
Of Long John Silver and Toerag, WHO?
Towards Ballad "Dear" and his poetry, too.

A battle ensues, each time they appear
A competition of words to fear.
Long John writes of kicking kats
And Toerag complains and causes spats.

While Ballad "Dear" pens sweetened tunes
Of suns that rise and tilting moons.
Those three alone can cause a row
As on and on and on they go.

So Long John Sir, enough, I say
Try writing "fluff" for just one day.

Gee - I don't know who I upset more - those I mentioned or those I left out - All I want is for everybody to get along *innocent eyes*.  Thank you all for your delightful responses.
