Sweet Earth, upon which we depend,
Is finite (come, let's not pretend).
It's ours just to use
And not to abuse;
So it's USUFRUCT, or it's the End.
--- Eva Amata

USUFRUCT, it's hard to resist it.
And though local canons insist it
Is law of the land,
On the other hand,
The Ten Commandments don't list it.
--- Chris Papa

The right to benefit, USUFRUCT,
Wherein fruits or profits are plucked,
Needs for stability,
Responsibility,
Or else the works will self-destruct.
--- Daniel Ford

"Thou shall grant to all USUFRUCT",
Was a commandment that really sucked.
'Twas deleted on sight
'Cause Moses thought it might
Cause a lot of folks to get fucked.
--- Norm Brust

So droit du seigneur's USUFRUCT;
Apocryphal right to induct
A vassal's new bride
To pleaures untried --
And possibly even instruct.
--- Nick

The right to take harvest, USUFRUCT,
Ought not include unripe cherries plucked.
No, abuse of servant
Can not be observant
Of social rules, but from them deduct.
--- Daniel

Sometimes when I'm bloated with gas,
With an urgent need to pass,
I figure a little toot'll
Prove very UTILE,
But I'm careful where I aim my ass.
--- Norm Brust

Poor men who are faced with truth brutal
That think they have a tool UTILE,
Viagra alone
With help for the bone.
And oft even peeing is futile.
--- Chris Papa

UVAROVITE, I think should be seen
On many on March seventeen;
'Tis a fitting gem
To be "one of them"
Who sport multi-leafed shamrocks green.
--- Chris Papa

A young maiden in our vicinity,
With beauty praised to infinity,
Had virtue till gent
Some UVAROVITE sent;
Exchanged for her lost virginity.
--- Chris Papa

The VALEDICTORIAN japer's
Crude, funny, cross-stage-streaking capers
Amused and distressed
Grad, teacher and guest.
And headlined the local newspapars.
--- Elois

VALEDICTORY, soaring like lead,
Is met by the grads with some dread,
Who, if they'd confess,
Just couldn't care less,
About what is thought, much less said.
--- Chris Papa

Hail and farewell VALEDICTORY
Should not be too contradictory.
For parents have paid
For those who made grade,
And prefer to think of it as victory.
--- Daniel Ford

VALETUDINARIAN I know,
Has red nose that he needs to blow.
Of symptoms, has tons,
Most everything runs,
Except when it's stopping or slow.
--- Chris Papa

Those people who'd grave dangers face,
Deemed VALOROUS while on Earth's space,
Are but a rare few,
Because what they do
Requires some luck, and great grace.
--- Chris Papa

The VALOROUS, sad to relate,
Are dismissive of fortune and fate.
Though idealistic,
Quite unrealistic:
Though brave, they are soft in the pate.
--- Eva Amata

Brave deeds done by the VALOROUS
Are proclaimed by gents sonorous,
With stentorian voice,
Who secretly rejoice
They took no risk indecorous.
--- Daniel Ford

A gal with a peculiar like
Spend many long hours on a bike.
When asked why she sat,
Smiled like a Cheshire Cat,
"It tickles my tiny VAN DYKE!"
--- Chris Papa

A Lesbian got off on her bike,
And shouted "Now that's what I like.
Not even a trim
Triangular quim --
No padding, no merkin VAN DYKE."
--- Nick

There are some, when come comes to push,
Who'd dress up flip side of the tush.
Or so I have heard,
To attact a bird
That likes to dive into a bush.
--- Chris Papa

The VANWARD position comes hard;
It takes a brave man or retard,
To serve in its ranks,
But I say no thanks.
Just leave me in the far rear guard.
--- Chris Papa

Those VANWARD ride in the forefront;
When battle begins they'll take brunt
Of the arrows and slings
And all that that brings,
So that's where more armour you'll want.
--- Gary Hallock

If life's dull and you need a break,
Try charming a venomous snake.
Playing with an elapid
Is anything but VAPID,
More exciting than baking a cake.
--- Norm Brust

Virginia had mind of a snail,
But she was a good piece of tail.
In talk, though quite VAPID,
She'd get a rise rapid
And please every bedded "sperm whale."
--- Chris Papa

I think, today, one often finds,
Kids cluttered with games of all kinds,
Which might entertain,
But shrivel the brain,
And leave them with quite VAPID minds.
--- Chris Papa

Few read the good books of days yore
Or even know what books are for.
With "Boob tube" dazzled
And PC frazzled,
They're inane, right down to the core.
--- Chris Papa

Compiled writings in VARIORUM
Represent writers' varied forum,
To regurgitate
What Jesuits ate
In their ratio studiorum.
--- Daniel Ford

This verse may be gentle faux pas,
In parts of the world, just becaus',
The thing in last line
With flowers devine,
Is known to a few as a vase.
--- Chris Papa

It seems that in wedded life's plan,
The scariest part known to man;
The mind reading part
You think wifely art,
Then discover, by God, that she can!
--- Chris Papa

The prophetic seer is VATIC,
But if aged peer's erratic,
Do check PSA
For signs that may say,
"Oracle has problems prostatic."
--- Daniel Ford

At Delphi, the oracle VATIC,
In setting of contrasts dramatic,
Gave prophecy
Ambiguously,
Leaving all seekers feeling ecstatic.
--- Elois

Cassandra, the pessimist VATIC,
Kept a young stud in her attic.
When she'd feel nervous,
He'd descend and service
Her in a rude way, emphatic.
--- Chris Papa

Marriage at first is ecstatic.
Then each decides self is VATIC.
Each thinks he can find
What's on other's mind,
Leading to fights quite dramatic.
--- Elois

This is file kcl

Old Greek broad, tarot fanatic,
Proclaimed cards made her quite VATIC.
A prophecy flop,
She rose to the top
Reading palms in setting Attic.
--- Chris Papa

Nostradamus was idiosyncratic.
His tone was boldly emphatic.
The source of his prophesy,
An obscure philosophy,
Hardly VATIC, was mostly static.
--- Norm Brust

Prophet oracular, VATIC,
Acts spectacular, dramatic,
In taking young buck
For such a quick truck:
Not vehicular or static.
--- Daniel Ford

In neighborhoods known as elite,
Some moms will good research defeat.
Refusing kid's shot
That all their friends got,
And VATICINATE not their sad mete.
--- Elois

The dictionary is quite emphatic:
The women at Delphi were VATIC:
And their VATICINATION
Drew much commendation
From the poor to the most autocratic.
--- Eva Amata

One gets a roaring ovation
With a happy VATICINATION.
But woe unto him
Who offers a grim
And gloomy haruspication. (gut augury)
--- Norm Brust

My prophesy, VATICINATION
Is that you'd avoid calcination,
If only you'd find
Some time in your grind
To get that disease vaccination.
--- Daniel Ford

Cassandra at VATICINATION,
Enjoyed pre-omen libation.
And most people thunk
She was a sad drunk,
The kink who spoiled celebration.
--- Chris Papa

In old times, a guy lost his head
Over gal he had taken to bed.
For his prowess VAUNTED,
The poor sucker's haunted
With all the great V.D.'s dread.
--- Chris Papa

Met Heinrich today, he looked haunted.
Walked right up to him, nothing daunted,
To boast of my play --
He just looked away
And asked vot it vas that I VAUNTED.
--- Eva Amata

To be highly praised, widely VAUNTED
For some will be a wish that's haunted.
For in their old age,
There may be some rage
That they did not achieve as wanted.
--- Daniel Ford

John felt as a child, so unwanted,
'Cause he was tormented and taunted.
But now that he's grown,
He's not so alone...
"I wanted in five states!" he VAUNTED.
--- Observer

The wide African plains of the VELDT
Are home to many species quite svelte.
But Bushman's ideal
Steatopygial
Is wide of target I seek: Celt!
--- Daniel Ford

With heat that could make copper melt,
Bushman mounted a gnu on the veldt.
He said with a sigh,
"I'm one horny guy,
And you can't know how good that felt.
--- Chris Papa

A lion surveying the VELDT,
Particular lassitude felt;
Said, "I'll stay in shade spot,
'Cause it's too damned hot
To chase sexy lioness sveldt.
--- Chris Papa

To cross the veldt on foot and stuff,
Two feet, of course, won't be enough.
Ride a critter with four
And with gear get four more.
Ten does it. Don't ride in the buff.
--- Elois

Abjuring buff rides sure seems fickle,
For if the grass has not seen sickle,
Those tall blades of grass
May reach guy and lass,
Whose hanging parts may feel a tickle.
--- Daniel Ford

At many a Thanksgiving celebration,
There's often a VELITATION
About who carves the bird,
It's not really absurd.
It's alpha-male defending his station.
--- Norm Brust

Right now there's but small VELITATION,
As illegals swarm into our nation.
I'm sure they will grow
As more come to know
The size of this massive invasion.
--- Chris Papa

Our unemployed fill their dole pails,
While lazy bums loll in posh jails.
Why can't these slobs
Be given the jobs
Sought eagerly by foreign males?
--- Chris Papa

In marriage we often see
That one act of great VELLEITY;
Surely exquisite
Mom-in-law visit,
Which strains wedded felicity.
--- Chris Papa

The faint impetus, VELLEITY,
Does often strike church's laity,
Who then disregard
The cleric's brush tarred
And opt for some spontaneity.
--- Daniel Ford

My infirmities I use as a crutch
When asked to do dishes and such.
I express my VELLEITY
By invoking the deity.
"My goddamned knee hurts too much."
--- Norm Brust

VELLEITY? Now that's one for the books!
And you can tell from the way my house looks,
That keeping it straight,
Vellleity will equate
With dusty crannys and nooks!
--- Barb

Housekeeping for just one is a crime!
I've better things to do with my time!
Fossils and rocks
Will beat dirty socks,
And limerick rhymes will beat grime!
--- Barb

Just when you thought you'd seen all,
Actions both petty and VENAL,
Each politician
Excapes perdition
And penalties civil or penal.
--- Chris Papa

I once knew a villain quite VENAL,
Traded in snatched transplants renal;
Once caught a hot kidney,
Transported to Sydney
To serve time in colony penal.
--- Chris Papa

He leads life exceedingly grim;
No 'shrimp on the barbie' for him.
But under hot sun
Has ever much fun,
Pounding rocks at the old warden's whim.
--- Chris Papa

The private showing or VERNISSAGE,
Like some seducer's fancy dressage,
While horsing around
With lithe miss he's found,
Is an exercise in undressage.
--- Daniel Ford

VENTRIPOTENT, that's me, I'm afraid.
For youthful gluttony, the price I've paid.
Though it's man a December
Since I've seen my member,
It doesn't stop me from getting laid.
--- Norm Brust

A VENTRIPOTENT old vet,
Who got that way from having "et"
Too often, too much,
And had a girth, such,
He showed a spherical silhouette.
--- Chris Papa

If you have inherent capacity
For speaking your words with veracity,
You'll find this facility
Builds credibility;
It stimulates great perspicacity.
--- Gary Hallock

I know a young fellow has it. He
Pursues the young maids with tenacity.
There's many a dandy
Who finds this ruse handy,
For tricking them out of their chastity.
--- Gary Hallock
