Unless of your partner, you're sure.
The result can be
Some dreaded V.D.,
Which hopefully some quack can cure.

And create furor
Outside every door,
Whenever partners adulterate.

And falsehood parade,
Suggesting life made
Of yearnings exceedingly chaste.

Whilst Gwinny kept making him hot.

My total ACEDIA
With popular media
Is more than boredom, it's antipathy!
--- Norm Brust
Lethargic foks, down as can be.
With sadness the sum
They can't overcome,
Enervated by ennui.

But there are a few
Who, like me and you,
Are turned on by the expedia.

In order to fix
The pH with sticks
Of indicator quite bibulous.

But I have wondered,
How, vertially sundered,
They might appeal to the Chinese.

Some writers weave meanings quite caustic.
Though no fan to root,

So color my feelings agnostic.

One tackles the Sunday ACROSTIC,
Finds word table d'hotes,
And quaint and queer quotes,
Some mellow, with others quite caustic.

But you must think it all the way through;
Over the "scan,"
Unless I plan,
This was the best I could do.
--- Barb
Head games with words have I often sparred!
You think you can win;
Methinks pride a sin.
End results: making sense oft are barred!
