This is a poem in response to a thread by Poet deVine in Announcements and Links. You can find it here: /pip/Forum3/HTML/000214.html Out of breath, out of strength. She is almost at arms length. Must push harder, cannot slow. Adrenalin causes my blood to flow. If caught I will be wed. I would rather just be dead! Wed to horrible millionaire. Of her money, I do not care! Glancing back, she is drawing near. Her catching me is what I fear. I must find a means of escape. Oh why couldn't I be in better shape? Running hard, running fast. I cannot be the one in last. Oh why do I have to be the prey, On this Sadie Hawkins Day? Thinking quick, I have a plan! For my escape, I need a man. Trip him up, make him fall He can succumb to her call I spy a man, losing speed Who only has a tiny lead I lunge forward, grab his knee He goes down, I am free! And from them I turn and run For with this race, I am done This is one where the slowest fail While quick thinking cheaters must prevail |

LOL...hysterical! I loved this! I can see you running, looking over your shoulder then frantically trying to find a victim to offer up for the sacrifice! Excellent poem! |

Now Mistikman shall never know - To fall in love he would enjoy. That guy he thought was really slow Was really just a very clever boy. Got tripped on purpose, yes he did - Dear Sadie took him home that day. So now they have a dozen kids And They are still in love today!! |

Very clever. I saw this one coming after I talked to you last night. Great job and good imagination! "WRITING IS EASY. ALL YOU DO IS STARE AT A BLANK SHEET OF PAPER UNTIL DROPS OF BLOOD FORM ON YOUR FOREHEAD." Gene Fowler |

Poet deVine- Heh, thanks, better him than me! WtdDove- Who could run from Ms. deVine? Certainly not I. I am running away from that horrible Sadie Hawkins Nan- Thanks, but I bet hes horrible and filing for divorce as we speak, kinda like that greedy (word that rhymes with witch) from Who wants to marry a multi-millionaire Marilyn- Why thank you hoot_owl_rn- I am glad I could bring a little humor to your day, thank you Jer- Heh, my bitterness towards love really didn't go into this, this was all a spur of the moment challenge from Poet deVine. Thanks anyway |

Moving this up ...as Mistikman was the 'cheater' in my poem! [This message has been edited by Poet deVine (edited 02-27-2000).] |
