Some men are impatient to wait,
And once in power,
Set out to deflower,
Chicks that near them PULLULATE.
--- Chris Papa
As in petri dish gleaming;
Those bugs overgrowing,
Revolution showing,
Of resistance always dreaming.
--- Daniel Ford
Was shaped like a short, fat cello.
His sidekick, Abbot,
Had the nasty habit
Of insulting his harmless PUNCHINELLO.
--- Norm Brust
And sweet love words, even, he'd bellow.
But girls didn't mind,
Whenever they'd find;
He sure was a well-endowed fellow.
--- Chris Papa
Find order as life's great incentive;
They surely can't fail
To notice detail,
That we all call anal retentive.
--- Daniel Ford
When looking at words is PUNCTILIOUS.
For every syllable
Is ground that is tillable;
That's why he sometimes so silly is.
--- Gary Hallock
A know-it-all who spends time framing
Words and opinion,
Our leaders to pinion,
Exposing his ego to maiming.
--- Daniel Ford
Gets rewards to help her life ease.
She says, "Stay a virgin!"
Though with little urgin',
She'll indulge a bit, if you please.
--- Chris Papa
Kept selected facts, quite a few.
But was asea, swimmin',
When it came to women,
Where most men just haven't a clue.
--- Chris Papa
But couldn't find someone to fund it.
My verse, readers panned it --
That's not how I planned it,
For into the ground they all runned it.
--- Gary Hallock
Knowledge so broad that none shunned it,
Was often asked,
Frequently tasked,
But none was willing to fund it.
--- Daniel Ford
But now I think I should have shunned it.
Now there's a rumor
That I'm giving up humor,
And instead, becoming a PUNDIT.
--- Norm Brust
Flaunts knowledge amassed by the tons.
But I'd rather say,
In realm of word play,
It's someone who dithers in puns.
--- Chris Papa
Though sometimes verses are biting.
Gilbert wrote great rhyme --
Sullivan tunes time;
Both were PUNDITS when not fighting.
--- Reddog
If I'm to acquire some panache,
Then one of these weeks,
Before someone speaks,
I must give my body a wash."
--- Chris Papa
Can sound really rank or first rate.
How pretty the purfle is
Really's superfluous;
The strum of the thumb makes it great.
--- Gary Hallock
Sedate, or PURFLED all around.
They are quite esthetical,
While those electrical
Just look quite as weird as they sound.
--- Chris Papa
That pure perverse PURLIEU of pain,
All mired in slime
Where truth is a crime,
With liars bound for the gravy train.
--- Chris Papa
To what awful ways the pols tend?
Such fuming and fuss,
It was ever thus,
Just try not to vomit, my friend.
--- Chris Papa
Should be a quite comfortable milieu,
For reading, sip-Scotching,
And even bird-watching,
Though quiet's needed to see the curlew.
--- Daniel Ford
To anger the many "have nots".
And even worse,
He's the "Bambino's Curse",
Crushing those happy bean pots.
--- Chris Papa
And boiled Mt St Helens to spew,
Then made tree leaves fall,
And has wherewithall
To raise our oil price a buck or two.
--- Chris Papa
To be of the "touchy-feel" sort.
Indeed, there's not much
They won't feel or touch,
Or smoke, when they wish to cavort.
--- Chris Papa
About finding fair maid that's right one,
Is those of hearts faint
Will learn that it ain't
PUSILLANIMOUS folks that have won.
--- Chris Papa
At slight sound his ears will stand up.
As hairs rise on end,
He's quick to defend,
'Gainst critters that step by to sup.
--- Chris Papa
To man who led them from above,
Their ambition strives
In form of "long knives."
The boss goes when PUTSCH comes to shove.
--- Chris Papa
He'll not cut a deal with Sharon.
Even Fatah knows
That either he goes,
Or a PUTSCH will see that it's done.
--- Norm Brust
That every new day brings a PUTSCH.
And Hutus and Tutsi's
They just won't play footsies,
But succeed in slaughtering much.
--- Chris Papa
And inflict unkindest of cuts.
Each PUTSCH head, indeed,
Will new title need,
More like he's the head of a PUTZ.
--- Chris Papa
As from peppers in gut pyloric,
Seems to come on fast,
But when gas has passed,
The feeling can be quite euphoric.
--- Daniel Ford
And thinking some love would be great,
He wined, dined, and danced her
But never de-pantsed her.
PYRRHIC brief kiss was his fate.
--- Frank
The source of songs and poems lyric,
But just as often
Poets go off 'n
Make such subjects joke butts satyric.
--- Daniel Ford
That at times went stratospheric,
And argument won
With his "Honey Bun",
In bed was a victory PYRRHIC.
--- Chris Papa
As hostage, he sailed up the Nile.
Ptolemy then
Provided some men;
He later got killed by a tile.
--- Nick
He gave us his own eponym.
A victory may
Be PYRRHIC, we say:
As Axculum had been for him.
--- Nick
They substitute History's dross.
One needs Clinton's spin,
Declaring you win,
While going down for a big loss.
--- Anon
(Except for their sisters with pimples)
Depends on papa
Who masquerades QUA
A cleric whose weakness is dimples.
--- Nick
Had motor boat. Needed no rower.
Transported a snake
Toward large boat mid lake.
Last words squeezed out, "Must be a boa..."
--- Elois
Can leave a runner tired and draggy.
The wet, heavy muck
On the feet, will suck
Till the energy ebbs quite swaggy.
--- Daniel Ford
Had mastered in ways that were naggy,
When hubby was rough,
Till he had enough;
Now she's with frogs in a place QUAGGY.
--- Chris Papa
Evidenced by how wildly they flail,
As they all run away
To live another day,
Leaves a psychic debt and yellow trail.
--- Daniel Ford
And new chance will prrobably fail,
This Spring saw the end
Of our Hoosier friend,
From rage that made our poor Dan Quail.
--- Chris Papa
Or suffer a sudden reversal,
But there's one highfalutin
Of terms needs disputin':
Are you sure that it's not quaquaversal?
--- Anon
And enjoy their life at its peak,
Though GNP lag,
They should try to bag
The life of a QUARTAN work-week.
--- Charis Papa
From Tom Ridge who's on the QUI VIVE.
Whether red alert or yellow,
Our security fellow
Will duct tape your hankie to your sleeve.
--- Norm Brust
Ever watchful for those who'd deceive.
Seeing through disguises
Of both girls and guyses,
Till the morning watch comes to relieve.
--- Daniel Ford
Looking for terrorists to receive
Our increasing might,
In this ghostly fight;
Against chaos we seek a reprieve.
--- Daniel Ford
Though most folks are good, I believe.
There are quite a few
Just looking for you,
With something no good up their sleeve.
--- Chris Papa
That "something for nothing" thought rife,
Abroad in the world,
With "compassion" hurled,
Is base for class wars and much strife.
--- Chris Papa
Depends on your social station.
Nixing all bets,
He who has, gets;
QUID PRO QUO for wealthy nations.
--- Elois
For reciprocity is just fine.
Call it QUID PRO QUO
Or blow by blow,
"I'll do yours if you'll do mine."
--- Norm Brust
Is the grease for economy's flow.
It also describes
Political bribes
And the grease by which many deals grow.
--- Daniel Ford
At the bottom the same thing is so.
Life's best in broad middle;
That's not taradiddle.
Moderation's the best way to go.
--- Elois
And promised a nice QUID PRO QUO,
But then did expose
His shriveled up hose.
But cash on the line was pro quo.
--- J'Carlin
Is selling of votes for real dough.
For our friends in power
Expect a gold shower,
Politely termed a QUID PRO QUO.
--- Chris Papa
The President's intern and so,
In her he'd confide
For a bit on the side;
As lawyer, he say, "QUID PRO QUO."
--- Chris Papa
The sweet little thing was no "Ho;"
To her boss devoted,
Until the slob coated
Her blue dress with spume of the blow.
--- Chris Papa
Which is sold provides liquidity.
If virus Melissa
Your software should kissa,
Help you will need for wickedity.
--- Daniel Ford
Had melons that wouldn't quite fit a "D".
This little gal she
Grew full double "D",
In danger of losing chastitity.
--- Gary Hallock
Her dad, with an urgent rapidity,
Wrapped her in a corset
Before too much worse it
Could get, and thus for a while hid it he.
--- Gary Hallock
Had done this to forestall rigidity
In pants of young men,
Who're more apt to sin
When feeling a lack of flaccidity.
--- Gary Hallock
That "Every dog will have its day."
And I'd like to add
Each dog will be glad,
As QUIESCENT canine sleeps away.
--- Chris Papa
Rather than effervescent,
Make a count of your pills
Taken for mental ills.
He may have swallowed a depressant.
--- Norm Brust
But as he reached for her intimate parts,
A sudden flatus
Put a QUIETUS
To his quest. Romance dies with farts.
--- Norm Brust
Sans diplomatic wiggle room.
Although French won't greet us,
We should bring QUIETUS,
After some baleful bang and boom.
--- Chris Papa
Takes two pair before the bidding starts.
The guy showing three clubs
His lucky charm rubs,
Though his hole card is QUINCUNX of hearts.
--- Norm Brust
Though it may have been written with wink.
It's imagery rare
Shows that you're almost there
Waiting to be seen by the shrink.
--- Chris Papa
