Spending days (and nights) on the floor reading poems and having rhymic flings sounds like poets gone wild to me. Let us all flock to the Temple from now until spring! ?

It may have sounded cool Dave
In essence it was hot
A lovely pair round manly ass
(How long before he shot?)
(Shit Don you'll be kicked out of WOL - too risque
It's all your your fault Dave)
Now where was I....?
Now you can tell the kiddy
Them kiddywinks at school
That Don your friendly poet
Says no it isn't cool ?

Reading this was like watching Carl Sandberg watch 'The Twilight Zone' in IMAX.
Great imagery, Alan. The lines form a verbal form of sfumato equally well as they haze the differentiation between the actual and the perceived.
Two thumbs up.??
(I love that last line too.)

I’ve made a video with an electronic mix of this poem now (it only took me 3 months!) You can watch it here https://youtu.be/uepRXd6EYH4 I changed the title to Fix The Climate, thinking it sounds more positive.

God knows how you managed to produce such an epic, but I got totally embroiled in it.
The Smegroyds are a dysfunctional family of losers and cadgers, but you can't help but be smitten by them !
I loved it.

Shuchi,
A tragic tale of unrequited love.
An experience like that destroys your faith and trust in human nature.....but time is a great healer.
Well done.

It might be -3 where you are
And Boris yes he is quite a twat
Would you believe here it's 45 tomorrow?
And Po, that is bloody-well hot
I'll bet Boris's lover's real hot too
Renowned for her spin-doctoring around
She's blond and has Boris besotted
A hot one our Boris has found ?

Thanks Don. Perhaps there is still hope for me yet, 'though with my hang-ups I doubt it.
For example, I would rather donate a kidney to a sick pig than have to stand up and recite in front of an audience.
Many years ago one of my limericks came runner-up in an arts literary festival and I was sent an invitation to read it and collect my prize at the forthcoming awards ceremony. I almost shit myself just reading the letter. I wrote back something to the effect that due to my recent bout of Avian flu I was still radio-active. They forwarded the prize by post.

MC you now know 'bout three brothers
Who make looking at them us cringe
(Unfortunately one is still missing)
Embarrassed he's come off his hinge?
Sorry MC I got sidetracked
Was meaning to tell you 'bout another
Have you guessed what goes rhyming with 'tother'?
I've yet to scare you with their mother
I'm sorry there Po if you're nightmaring
But all creatures great/looking shit
Have equal opportunities of sharing
There place on WOL site, each one bit ?

I know how you feel about posting something controversial or P.U.
You feel anxious about what the comments might be as you scroll down to them. The important thing for me is being unconventional. This is how new ideas emerge. Stick to the safe and one stagnates.

Two interlocking and both quite dead corpses
Is natural for two, six foot under

Which is preferable - assuming being tired has no eternal meaning...
An end without sex - OR
Sex without end? ?
