As a golfer, he's well under par.
He's a hero in the local bar.
In poolroom, he's super.
Looks like Gary Cooper.
That's me -- in my dreams -- my AVATAR.
--- Norm Brust

A married lass, some five months gravid,
For pickles developed taste AVID.
She pled and she whined
For the treat well-brined;
Said Freud, "She simply but have id."
--- Chris Papa

Man and bird both AVIGATE
In search of a suitable mate.
The bird then gets by
With a worm or a fly,
While man strives for mighty estate.
--- Chris Papa

In-flight wayfinding, AVIGATION,
Is sometimes source of aggravation;
In air lanes crowded
With vision clouded,
There's chance of error porpagation.
--- Daniel Ford

With a case of wayward AVIGATION,
We're offered this lame explanation:
"The FAA rebooter,
Who runs our computer,
Was visiting the comfort station."
--- Norm Brust

An AVUNCULAR uncle named Fred
Enticed a young girl to his bed --
He plied her with candy
And kittens and brandy;
She demurred with demarch and then fled!
--- Eva Amata

A hermit, the kind who is monkular,
Blessed all in the manner AVUNCULAR,
But kept a bawdy wench
Inside near his bench,
Ready for times he might dunkle her.
--- Chris Papa

Kindly and gentle, AVUNCULAR,
Ought not to have linkings peduncular,
As one has suggested
For monk who wrested
On his bench with wench carbuncular.
--- Daniel Ford

It is very AXIOMATIC
That if you give your mate much static,
There's no bed to share;
You'll soon climb the stair
To a lonely place in the attic.
--- Chris Papa

Long-known truth is AXIOMATIC,
Oft couched in terms idiomatic,
That some find confusing
Or even amusing,
When understanding is problematic.
--- Daniel Ford

When a proposition is deemed AXIOMATIC,
Agreement should follow automatic;
Except in my house
Where my cherished spouse
Insists I'm being autocratic.
--- Norm Brust

AZIMUTH, civilian use rare,
Gives help when one is getting there.
What pilots must know
Lest they arrive "slow",
And end up with an angry fare.
--- Chris Papa

It helps the big cannon to aim,
So the gunner will sharpen his game,
And land the big shell
That blows foe to hell,
Earning the sharpshooter fame.
--- Chris Papa

Blue suits, red ties -- that's your habit.
When the gold ring goes by, you grab it.
When the sun shines, you make hay.
You're a walking cliche,
And the name for your lifestyle is BABBITT
--- Norm Brust

What is it like to be Babbitt?
Sort of bad dream or bad habit.
Today's world isn't square
So you'd best be aware;
Old ideas are passe, that's the gambit.
--- Barb

Today's youth, in perpetual grouse,
Consider Dad a BABBITT, a mouse.
Such gripes perfecting
Meanwhile expecting
Food and comfort that's in his house.
--- Chris Papa

There was a young man of Seattle
Who treated his wife as a chattel.
When renting her out,
He'd tactlessly shout
"I'm tired of her BABBLATIVE prattle."
--- Nick

There once was a BABBLATIVE bride,
Who kept her mouth open quite wide.
Extolling weird notions,
So hubby's devotions
Included some stuff on the side.
--- Chris Papa

Baby-sitter: a job that's misnamed.
It implies something vaguely untamed.
But with more inquisition,
It means supervision
Of children, so no one is maimed.
--- Mike Scholtes

Wine-loving reveler, BACCHANT,
As nun would have it, did not want,
For under his surplice
was a sausage surplus:
It the morning habit, her wont.
--- Daniel Ford

Defer delivery, BACKWARDATION,
Is economic retardation;
Paying premiums
For convenience
Should prompt customers' consternation.
--- Daniel Ford

If the wait for your cargo is long,
And covered with string cobwebs strong,
It's and invitation
To prompt BACKWARDATION
Where you are nice paid for the wrong.
--- Chris Papa

Back and forth of biting BADINAGE
Among such a preppy entourage
Includes imitation,
Much imagination,
And the charms of passing decolletage.
--- Daniel Ford

I think badinage use is swell,
It's the light repartee, as you tell,
And its cousin, you see,
We've used recently,
That's persiflage, which counts as well.
--- Chris Papa

In wide world where BAKSHEESH prevails,
It is wind for commercial sails.
Where nothin will budge
Lest you tip the judge,
As shady endeavor entails.
--- Chris Papa

It takes more than a drink and a meal,
To close a Mid-Eastern deal.
To reach this position
You must pay a commission;
The BAKSHEESH that greases the wheel.
--- Norm Brust

BAKSHEESH can land you in a mess,
Especially with the IRS! (Merkin tax agency)
You might wind up in a jam,
Maybe flee on the "lam",
And most surely be earning bad press.
--- Barb

A healing balm's power BALSAMIC
Is needed for conflicts Islamic
And pronunciation
From different Brit station,
Which keeps our language dynamic.
--- Daniel Ford

Frankincense, myrrh and such gifts
Give olfactory senses their lifts.
As do things BALSAMIC
Prod brain thalamic,
Which brings us to amorous shifts.
--- Chris Papa

Pheromones, scents, and such smells
Work on the beaus and their belles.
And where they all lead
Will help sate lust need,
With nights in expensive hotels.
--- Chris Papa

The largest of scams known these days,
Are our politicians' slick ways.
They lie, BAMBOOZLE,
So that we will lose all
Respect for their "governing" ways.
--- Chris Papa

All husbands bamboozle real swell,
But just don't know their wives can tell.
We don't really care
'Cause we know life is fair,
And that one day they'll all rot in hell.
--- Kitten

BAMBOOZLE, to cheat or to dupe,
For some things, a person will stoop.
The most potent Rex,
To get some good sex,
Will gladly jump through lady's hoop.
--- Chris Papa

This is file hwl

Flim-flam men rely on BAMBOOZLE
And victims common sense recusal,
To steal money quickly,
Sweet talking thickly,
Like Pooh bear's nemesis the woozle.
--- Daniel Ford

Despite Swift's pedantic refusal
To use corrupt words like BAMBOOZLE,
Bamboozle he did
Me much, as a kid,
As I through his works made perusal.
--- Gary Hallock

If candidates, public bamboozle,
In perfect world surely they lose'll.
This isn't Utopia --
They're making a dope of ya.
I trust you an honest man chose'll.
--- Jim Drew

The lawyers and those of their crew's'll
Find ways to most folks BAMBOOZLE.
They'll maidens deflower,
Then charge by the hour,
And mete justice with stern refusal.
--- Chris Papa

In BANANA REPUBLIC we see,
Though most folks are poor as can be,
Each lady and man
Would shed the nice tan
That gringos want so foolishly.

So buy them here now,
And stop fretting how
To greet Christmas Day with aplomb.

With expensive tastes to be fed,
She turned to her BANAUSIC bed,
To ply ancient trade
Of a willing maid,
Well paid for whenever she spread.

J&J bandage is a BAND-AID,
Trademarked and not what others have made;
Entered lexicon
'Cause until boo-boo's gone,
The temporary fix is displayed.
--- Daniel Ford

With each violent jiggle displayed,
A churning young stripper dismayed,
As pasty was lost,
So free nipple tossed,
Till covered by discrete BAND-AID.
--- Chris Papa

Grotessque imagery of BANDERSNATCH
From Lewis Carroll we attach
To any weird beast
Or Southwest pig greased,
Tarred and feathered in order to catch.
--- Daniel Ford

Of all the wierd people to hatch,
There's none to compare with or match,
As the sui generis type,
Much given to hype,
The frumious bold BANDERSNATCH.
--- Chris Papa n

When a BANDERSNATCH stands on a crate
Labeled "soap" and spews frumious hate,
At whovever comes near
And pours lies in their ear,
You can tell it's election time, mate.
--- Eva Amata

A husband, while on drunken spree,
In tavern where he should not be,
Should anticipate
To prevaricate,
Then hear wails from spousal BANSHEE!
--- Observer

I swear to you this is no farce,
When French torturers weren't sparse,
They'd stick a rod
Right into your bod;
"De la barbs au cul" -- From beard to arse.
--- Chaton

Seems France too, has its tales of old wives,
'Cause there's others who say it derives
From grates made of wood,
"Barbacoa", which could
Itself be a legend that thrives.
--- Hugh Clary

A BARBICAN hard by a moat,
A castle's defense to devote
Housed challenging guy,
Whose "Who goes there?" cry,
Rang out in stentorian throat.
--- Chris Papa

McCain and Finegold mean to storm
The stronghold, all cuddly and warm
Of those who'd sell vote
And on "cash-cows" dote,
BARBICANS of campaign reform.
--- Chris Papa

The thespian Simon Russell Beale,
BARDOLATER surely non-pareil,
With royal robes girt,
On stage fell down hurt,
But played on as though pain he'd not feel.
--- Elois

In Shakespeare worship, BARDOLATER
Displays the signs of idolater,
Though often it's just
A logophile's lust
And frenzy of bibliolater.
--- Daniel Ford

The mirror's view, cause for alarm,
Your health it will certainly harm;
If tummy is bulging
From over indulging,
Get thee to BARIATRIC "fat farm."
--- Chris Papa

I'm not yet ready for BARIATRICS,
Though I'm way past doing gymnastics.
I'm not officially obese,
But I love livers from geese,
And go for seconds and sometimes hat tricks.
--- Norm Brust

Big boobs, car, apartment and rainment,
You get without work, trade, or payment.
TV's BARMECIDALS
From programs and idols
Mold character through entertainment.
--- Elois

In the sting of the con man's art,
BARMECIDE feels warm at the start.
But then the mark wakes,
And angry, he takes
Whatever revenge can impart.

(pretending to feed)
--- Daniel Ford

BARMECIDE word is a sleeper,
Smacks of some crazy thoughts deeper, ('barmy side')
Or suggests at least
Quite another beast,
Dispatching a saloon keeper.

(pretending to feed)
--- Chris Papa

Illusory feast, BARMECIDE,
Con man's tool for a warm aside,
Is likely to be
Much worse calumny,
When mark's driven to homecide.

(pretending to feed)
--- Daniel Ford

I acknowledge it's needless to say;
I realise it's no roman a clef.
I must question the former,
What the heck's a barnstormer?
(I've assumed you can read "en Francais").

Some people are simply too lazy
I'm not going to tell I'm not crazy
In Webster's or the net
Lies the answer you get.
I'm too busy going down on my Daisy

Belle was a babe quite BAROQUE
Appeal to those whom tension evoke.
The complex design,
Irregular line,
And love of gold means "go for broke."
--- Daniel Ford

Great BASTION of laws, storied courts,
Which try felonies, civil torts,
Deprive liberty
Of poor that they see,
While setting free the well-heeled sorts.
--- Chris Papa

I'm totally sympathetic
With your situation BATHETIC.
Your story drear
Makes me cry in my beer,
And the effect is duretic.
--- Norm Brust

Daily "soaps" full of BATHETIC tripe,
And themes of a sexual type,
Are not fun to watch,
Except for the crotch
Of leading babe, who's overripe.
--- Chris Papa

The BAXTER was, I think, unwise
To roll dough in front of those guys.
For watching her knead,
Their strong lust she'd feed.
We all know to what that gives rise.
--- Gary Hallock

With the last loaf out of the oven,
The BAXTER's thoughts soon turned to lovin'.
She rushed home to mate
But arrived much too late,
And found the laundress he was a-shovin'.
--- Norm Brust
