There are 25 school busses in outer space
most of which are filled with lemon rinds
the lemon rinds of death
haunting me...haunting me...
HAUNTING ME!
ahhhhh and the
the poetry of the past joins the rinds in taunting me
taunting me, taunting me......
TAUNTING ME
OH MY
and forever singing praise to lemon pie
pie is for billiards.
and billiards is for apes
now put away the lemons
and get out the
(grapes would be the logical choice..)
but we must not be logical, for logic will kill.
kill the lamp! kill the streetlight!
dim it to a steady buzz
fuzzy worms caress the shrine
and the slippery ones shine
vamos!

This is cool!  I loved the rather surrealistic imagery of this piece.  I think I will add this to my library.  It's one of those poems that seems to tickle something inside of me, lol.

Ok peoples, here's how we wrote this one...
Carly and I were bored, she just out of nowhere said "say something interesting."  So I said the very first thing that came to mind.  (like free association.)  
She was pleased, she responded... we got an idea.  What would a poem be like if it was written entirely by free association?  
This is the result.  Thanks for your replies everyone!
