The sweetest thing was anticipation. I had begun to tire of the wait. I think that line needs an explanation. Every thought of him made me salivate. For just about a year I have waited. The whole time I would ponder and mutter. His red complexion was overstated. It matched the color of the drawn butter. Just looking at him made me salivate. His legs and claws I did first devour. His tasty tail was the next thing I ate. The tomalley tasted salty-sour. The friendship was one-sided in the end. This verse told you of my succulent friend. ©1999 DreamEvil ------------------ Shall I indulge in flights of fancy hampered by clipped wings? DreamEvil© |

The old adage of "you can't tell a book by it's cover" fits titles as well...at first blush [lol] I thought this should be in the Adult Forum. Good job, DE!

Ah yes - from a New England beachbum.... "Maine Lobster" can only be rivaled by "Gulf Shrimp" or maybe "Stone Crab" or maybe "Nantucket Scallops" or maybe..... Oh, darn - I love 'em all........ ------------------ Nay, if our wits run the Wild-Goose chase, I am done: For thou hast more of the Wild-Goose in one of thy wits, Than I am sure I have in my whole five. ~ ²1592 Wm.

Nan, we both seem to understand the finer things in life. Epicurean consumption of creatively cooked crustacea is a driving purpose behind the obligatory and yearly family visit. Lobster killer I may be, but he died in a noble cause, as did his sibling. |
