Sneaky Burton would slink 'round the block
Busting into homes: he'd never knock.
He's a not-to-be bloomer:
A real social tumor.
Now he's on the wrong side of the lock.

A lycanthrope one night in June
was seen in his favorite saloon
Where he licked up some salt,
Ate a lime, drank some malt,
and proceeded to howl at the moon.

Alabama has an electric chair nicknamed Yo' Yellow Mammy
And Elmo was a Democrat who stole food stamps from his granny
"Now here's a happy thought" He said "one I do propine
Serve me up my ten thousand volts one volt at a time"
[But Elmo wasn't prorated because just like this rhyme
An execution and a poem should end in the shortest time]

Magda began with astrolatry,
like her mother, and added geolatry;
This talent gentilitial
She found monetarily beneficial
And offered her readings “two for idolatry”.

I didn't laugh when I read "two for adolatry"; I smiled. I smiled for five minutes...I'm still smiling.

African, Spanish, or Asian,
Every soul should aspire

Rodriguez thought he had no enemy;
He considered himself quite a prodigy;
Twas a blow to his ego
to hear “Adios, Amigo!”
As they hanged and defaced his effigy.

The gov'ment gave us a tax
They said t'was mere a pax
In their inimical way
They said we're better off gay
So said a battle weary axel.
Gosh! If I don't know the meaning of what I wrote...who does? Must have been the wine. ... et laissez les bon temps roullez! BE - BATTLE AXE

Insecure? Sure thing, Beck, and a raging bull in full rut is insecure too.
Anyone who can wax poetically...
Whether Congolese, German, Caucasian,
African, Spanish, or Asian,
Every soul should aspire
to live life on fire,
As though we were, each of us, Cajun!
et laissez les bon temps roullez!
...is -poetically speaking- a genius.

Sir Lancelot liked to romance a lot
But Sir Lancelot didn't like to dance a lot
Then when Guinevere (whose real name was Lamella)
Did the dirty minuette with another nice knight fella
Sir Lancelot begin dancing and dancing...every chance he got.

(I had a great one for this until I double-checked the actual meaning of sesquipedalian...)
A former young sailor named Jervis
Left his friends behind, back in the service.
Built sesquipedalian,
He thought himself alien,
And his paramours now all seemed nervous.

So many had nice things to say,
That my head grew with each passing day!
Now it won't fit the frame
But still, all the same
I'd like to say, "Thanks," my own way.

Too bad this small fame isn't portable
(Nor poetry lessons affordable.)
My constrained popularity
Should be viewed with hilarity:
I assure you it isn't supportable.

A dancer who’d twisted her ankle
Refused to get ornery and rankled.
Despite the critique
that she looked like a geek
she danced ‘though the ankle crinkle-crankled.

Said a lesbian sailing at sea
Incredulous was she
At the sight of leviathan, he
Swallowing seamen with glee
It's not the ultimate goal

Yes, Welcome! I like the way you think.
Quick-Trigger Bob liked to boast
he could screw any girl on the coast:
"I'll usually finish
inseminate minutes."
He spent less time than that, though, in most.

There once was a friendly girl: Jenny Hall;
The boys had renamed her as Jenny Tall,
In all matters general,
Natural and coital,
She was pleasantly agreeable and liberal.

And what's with JJ? Dunno. I just saw this today. I've PM'ed her; hope to hear something back. It can be so easy, even in real life, to misinterpret something as a personal affront when in fact no such thing was intended. I hope that's not what happened here.

The theoretical stick,
Was incredibly quick,
It never got lost,
Or turned to compost,
Though it was undeniably thick
falciform + falsetto

Was assailed with a falciform fang.
He grabbed his libretto
And read in falsetto

A broccoli, it's true did induct,
In a spate of atrocious conduct,
A carrot as head,
Of the brassica's shed,
Though it was inedible and mulct,

When he questioned the need for diarchy:
"I think this dichotomy,
Which once meant a lot to me,
Is a double-dip dose of malarky."

The lord he demanded escuage,
So the serfs began to encourage,
Each other to flee,
Not drop to one knee,
And essentially abandoned their liege.

Depspite all your flim-flam and faultery.
Now, tipping a cow is
A psure psign of prowess;
But perhaps you pshould take up the psaltery."
