POETRY - Can you write a Poem?

[DonQuixote]

Leftykins or LeftyCuss,
That self-same soul,
How best can we turn a word
and make the phrase droll?

We play at words, you and I,
Cum what may.
How big and bravado-esque
will our "fish" be today?

Some see the joke there
and shout Hoo-Ray,
While others wonder
What the Hey?!

We come from different places,
Not simply walks of life.

Some live in luxury,
Others, strife.

And, not knowing all the facts,
We don't know how OUR tune
That melodic rhapsody, will be,
When played upon THEIR Fife.

It's not that they
don't want to play
in our band,
It's just that our woodland notes
sound strange
When played upon the strand.

And we need to know that when the note
Sounds with a bit of some other website,
'Tis time to sit and pull the flask
For the Pen IS Mightier than the sword.

And if, by chance, we've nicked a friend
While we've been out at play,
There's no harm done to balm and tend
And not a Dragon slay.

 

[DonQuixote]

Jump-Start,
First, and Foremost,
WELCOME to JUB and the Poetry Thread.

If you peruse our posts here and about,
I think you'll see many a shout.

This season of Yule,
Alleged Merriment,
Can leave us all,
Emotionally Spent.

It's sad, but true,
As appears has happened to you,
That our Dark Winter's night,
Gives people fright,
And magnifies their plight.

Don't give up the fight!

Love, un-returned,
Nay, even spurned,
Burns, stings, pierces things.

But, life doth proceed,
New life, laid as seed.

So, drinkest some Mead
Mount your Steed
Your Case we do Plead
And our aim, takes bead.

Our target, your heart,
to excise hurt from the start.
For that's OUR part,
Making sure the Horse
is fore the cart.

 

[Kulindahr]

Make a poem?
I could.
If I weren't so tired
I would.
But I find myself mired
in troubles acquired --
they get me weary;
my eyes are bleary --
so make my bed, I should.

 

[Kulindahr]

Ah! Our knight errant
his presence apparent
from well-crafted word
to make himself heard.

 

[Lefty]

Nice Jump.........Good start

Welcome.


Kuli. go to your room and nap now.

Blizz you're sposed to be reading and writing about it

...not rhyming you silly shit.

 

[Kulindahr]

 

[DonQuixote]

LeftyCuss,
Such a fuss,
I may be remiss
in the perusal and post,
and I know I've been less
than a complete host,
BUTT, I still have the Right
to be a lyricist
and sort out your mess.

 

[Lefty]

oh,

ok

whatever

 

[Kulindahr]

This is not a poem
it's just some words from home
I type them on the screen
and wonder what they mean

 

[DonQuixote]

Kuli,
They mean you're still here with us,
And have the talent to enthrall us,

We all have days that are good or bad,
and holidays can make us sad,
hang with us for just a tad,
Maybe you'll find your Tony or Chad.

 

[Lefty]

Words from Home

words are the telling

of the thoughts that are swelling

from a soul that is dwelling

in places of no telling

some are deeper in hell

others to heaven as well

which is when the brain cannot gel

time is up...hear the bell?
---------------------------------------
Eat It

Served as words upon a plate
thats likely why you cant relate
Emotions are what one passes
seen only as some bilious gases
eat and eat then leave me lover
from this I know I won't recover
you took what you wanted to find
leaving me bites of my empty mind
was that then your final goal
one more plug at my hairy hole
I take it back what I gave for free
you get nothing more no parts of me.
We now have had our last date
the dead love that is our fate.
------------------------------------------

Second Puberty

I almost had to smile
As I walked that lonely mile

I did it with out your help
I made no whimper nor did I yelp

A man to be must first select
the lives he wishes to reject

Will he stand brave and proud
Firm but quiet not too loud

Hold his dignity and his grace
steady hand secure in place

Now I have walked that lonely mile
Earned the shards of that bitter smile

-----------------------------------------------

Okay, a trilogy. did anything speak to you?
why...why not?

 

[DonQuixote]

Maya LeftyLou,

A trio of verses served on a plate,
At this early hour of this early date.

What sonambic poultice had thou pressed
To your head whilst thou did rest,
That such dimensional thoughts could brood
And from your lips and fingers exude?

The Marianas go no deeper down
than the depth of your verse,
Everest and K2 could do no worse,
Than to soar to the heights of your mind's purse.

Some, a bit maudlin a reflection this near,
At the start of new hope,
The first day of this year.

Lefty, I couldn't have done it without you:

I Told Me So Redux: An Electronic Communication from the Desk of Dr. Doo

Just to be clear, when I said this poem was for Lefty, I meant it was a gift to him, not about or addressed to him or any ONE person in particular.

I hate it when I misphrase like that. Even after everything is cleared up, I still feel guilty that someone was ever made to feel that way.

Carry on.

 

[Lefty]

Illy

as a friend I don't say this lightly so listen up...............

this is a thread for thoughts and feelings

not crass or crude mean or rude so

either fight it

or you bite it.

give nasty a pass

or we'll kick your ass.

And that is not BULLSHIT.

 

[Lefty]

Grab a shovel Matt

You've got a job in the south pasture.

 

[Lefty]

It's your bull young man.

Take your shovel and clear the mess

then we will review the possibility of

renewing your options. Maybe your brother will help,

heres an extra shovel and gloves.

****hands out stuff*****

 

[wenchine-mahtapasikan]

I [pre]-second that emotion.

To wennie:

​

The sun is up
The sky is blue
It's beautiful
And so are you

Won't you come out to play?

I hate to say this, but no malice is intended here.

Yes yes. Nice nice. I'd attempt to pay back the face value of your donation as usual, but my currency is too devalued. It'd take forever.

In the interim, I don't have the energy to play another losing game, no matter how sweet the competitor MAY be.

In the end, whatever. I just have one request. [STRIKE]I already[/STRIKE] The world already gave you your three options, I think you know which one I hope you take. But it's your choice.

And now for the request, have your fun as you always do, but if you are trying to a run a game on me:

Thanks.

BOYS

This is a no shovel zone

IF I HAVE TO WHACK YOUR PEEPEES

well, you have been warned

 

[Kulindahr]

IF I HAVE TO WHACK YOUR PEEPEES

Do we have a bailiff?

 

[Lefty]

You looking for a job,

do you have 3 references.

do you need a green card?
