Apologies Nan..Ali...I just couldn't resist  He stuck me underneath the table glass Well now my friends, isn’t this just swell? I feel like a mounted and stuffed striped bass And ewww gross I think I’m starting to smell! Well now my friends, isn’t this just swell? The rosy cheeks he loves so much will bruise And ewww gross I think I’m starting to smell! It’s good that we wore the same color rouge… The rosy cheeks he loves so much will bruise My make-up he does each day without fail It’s good that we wore the same color rouge… He pays such close attention to detail My make-up he does each day without fail Death like this would only happen to me He pays such close attention to detail Certainly something I did not foresee Death like this would only happen to me All this time I thought he was such a prince Certainly something I did not foresee He’s a few fries short, I need not convince All this time I thought he was such a prince I feel like a mounted and stuffed striped bass He’s a few fries short, I need not convince He stuck me underneath the table glass |

Hehehehehehe.... I loves this one Satiate...it was good to see that John could be tied up, drugged and thrashed within an inch of his lumberjack flannels...I can only wonder what Emily was wearing while doing this.  The meter was kinda weird to me, but that is OK...I'm a weird guy to start with. So's I guess I must now needs to find that shade of rouge...hmmm....this place needs a stick-up.

LMAO!! Oh, this is hilarious ... I realize you probably did this as a joke (and a good one at that!), and are not really concerned with the details of poetic protocol, but it occurred to me as I was reading it that the line "He's a few fries short, I need not convince" could be easily replaced with "He's a few fries short, I am convinced" ... the rhyme is not perfect, but it's good enough for government work!  Nocht |

Hehehehe.. The next time that you want to make someone laugh like this make sure that they are not drinking anything at the time. I'm seeing a Jerry Springer show thing going on with you and Ali. is there something that the two of you need to tell me? I loved it. Love, Lady |

Excellent work Satiate! This well complements Alicat's piece in tone and humor. There is but one line I see that throws your flow off; "Well now my friends, isn’t this just swell?" That line has only 9 syllables while your other lines hold 10. Other than that nitpic of mine, I see no problems with your structure or content. The word "ewww" adds quite a unique flavor to this piece that I find refreshing, it carries a poetic pungency that you just don't see enough of. It is just ripe with possibilities. ------------------ Now and forever, my heart hears ~one voice~. DreamEvil© |

I'm not touching it - I can't stop laughing long enough to even start - and if I tried to change anything, you'd change it right back anyway - This class is outa control!! - I knew I shouldn't have let you both in the same room at the same time - Both of you have detention today - No - I take that back - I'm no masochist - Go Trick or Treating together or something..... *shutting the class door behind me shaking head in frustration*...
