"At the top of that wall", I told Steve, Dissembler does DISCOMBOBULATE Dyslexia does recreate
Was named so by philologist,
So they neither would
Pursue tissue wood
With vigor of xylologist.
--- Daniel Ford
Salutes, one or two, then I'll save.
Though 'skull and crossbones'
Trip to Davy Jones,
I'd rather not brazenly brave.
--- Chris Papa
May prove vexing to philology;
When learning's dragging,
Interest is flagging
For seeing new terminology.
--- Daniel Ford
And cleft in divorce, quite bitter.
The complaints were troop,
From fur in the soup,
To bed sheets wet with kitty litter.
--- Chris Papa
And kitty brought in some live mice,
Or red cardinal's head,
She'd decapited,
And dead squirrels, too, once or twice.
--- Chris Papa
Hoped kitty might choke on fur ball,
All to no avail,
She just swished her tail,
While marriage crashed in final brawl.
--- Chris Papa
When wives hold that pussy is dearer,
Than hubby's interest,
You all know the rest,
The loss of big tom who is near her.
--- Chris Papa
Those critters are just not for me.
I itch and I sneeze,
Then I start to wheeze,
And soon, I can not even see!
--- Maggie
Even the one in the hat.
Thus far, in my house
I've not seen a mouse.
If I do I will get out the bat!
--- Maggie
It's usual to find a familiar;
It might be a rat,
More likely a cat,
Because of their AILUROPHILIA.
--- Bill
The best she could find anywhere.
Her friends thought her passion
Was way out of fashion:
"We much prefer boys who are bare."
--- Win
Said "They make the pain in my head ease.
I've some as small
As a ping pong ball,
And others as big as yetis."
--- Norm Brust
But she grew up after a while;
That liking expunged,
Soon after she plunged
And became firm erectophile.
--- Chris Papa
With COPROLALIA's wide scope.
Foul words fill the air,
As their youngsters swear,
Then get a good mouthfull of soap.
--- Chris Papa
Heard on visit to Australia,
Greatly bothered the Queen,
Who worried, being seen
With copro-tarnished regalia.
--- Daniel Ford
The Queen might give in and take part.
That fresh dab of brown
Right there on her crown,
Will sure make a resplendent start.
--- Chris Papa
Offset dreary atrabilia, (gloomyness)
And some verse rhyming
Gets the pump priming,
With enough happiness to fill ya.
--- Daniel Ford
But no wealth will it generate.
With bills, large and small,
I paper the wall,
Since they are notes Confederate.
--- Chris Papa
For bills are disgustingly germy.
Get bug (what bad luck)
From old paper buck,
End up underground and quite wormy.
--- Elois
Granted a wish, I asked for a willy
With same genetic code
As the creature I rode...
Should have been on a horse, not a filly.
--- Gunjan
It makes me feel very contentious.
Some folks, well they think
The wine that they drink
With French name won't make them licentious!
--- Barb
Though OENOPHILES pump their great "art,"
My alternate view
Is: more than a few
Are nothing but "winos" at heart!
--- Chris Papa
Of words that made hearts beat faster.
But his patter thrasonical
Most ladies found comical,
Earning rep as a sexist PHILOCASTER.
--- J'Carlin
Discourse on a subject he couldn't
Touch with a long pole,
Or he'll dig a deep hole
Where he Kant get out, or just wouldn't.
--- Chris Papa
Is search for stuff extremely rare,
Like stocks and bonds old,
Whose value, I'm told,
Has long since vanished into air.
--- Chris Papa
Collected books, bibliography;
Collections like these
Often many please,
But rag-tag ones appear scruffily.
--- Daniel Ford
To dismiss in a manner quite breezy,
Joining in the pile
Who are TUROPHILE;
I'll not belong to group so cheesy.
--- Chris Papa
Tasting cheeses from many a style,
Though not at all piggish,
Perhaps somewhat priggish,
And given to smells moldy and vile.
--- Daniel Ford
Sometimes seen as bizarre itches,
Brings sufferer grief,
Will trade, for relief,
All of world's pleasures aand riches.
--- Chris Papa
Fear that you might get a bite,
Jump off the high ridge,
Confronting a midge,
Or a wee acarid mite.
--- Chris Papa
Strangely scared like xenophobia;
And now the otter
Who needs the water
Had developed xerophobia.
--- Daniel Ford
Also afflicts one I hold dear,
But the aeroplane
Presents her no pain --
No high point cues her visual sphere.
--- Daniel Ford
Must walk in surrounding suburb,
For fear that one will,
Avoid a sure kill,
From stepping far off of street curb.
--- Chris Papa
This is file ktl
With speeding Jap car, sure as hell,
To flatten your toes,
And what else, God knows,
I think I'll stay in for a spell. (agarophobia)
--- Chris Papa
Smells of carrion liked by vulture.
But it grows to verger (grows to green carpet)
Of colonies to merger;
Tossed out it becomes a good mulcher. (holds water well)
--- Daniel Ford
Hanging around your home place.
You're sure if you go,
To the store or a show,
You might disappear without trace.
--- Chris Papa
Because of the unnamed fear stark.
You won't heed advice,
Stay frozen, like ice,
Or sit in a small closet dark.
--- Chris Papa
Causes one to retreat behind moat,
And into the room
To work on the loom,
Unless ANGORAPHOBE fears long-haired goat.
--- Daniel Ford
Its presence there certainly will
Enrage our brave Dobe,
An AILUROPHOBE,
Against whom, puss's chances are nil.
--- Chris Papa
Consider life just disease bringer.
Their fear never small,
NOSOPHOBIA all;
Each is a hand washer and wringer.
--- Chris Papa
At my age I'm feeling quite fit.
But hypochondriacs
And those supporting their acts
Makes me think they are not worth a shit.
--- Barb
Comes with severe critic's sharp call.
The message acerb,
With PAN as a verb,
Can bring on at once, "writer's stall."
--- Chris Papa
Is the force of his wife's frying PAN.
An awkward word said,
And Crash, on his head,
Then get sex wherever he can.
--- Chris Papa
Seeking a rare metal finer
Than silver, it's gold.
With his PAN, I am told,
He's visions of wealth's grand designer.
--- Chris Papa
To some women he was a fright.
He'd lay down his pipe,
The lay a few ripe
Nymphs, for the rest of the night.
--- Chris Papa
Writer Jim Barrie's salt crook,
Of evil completer,
Fear of PAN, Peter,
Unless gist of play I've mistook.
--- Chris Papa
From which, of course, we would ourselves save,
Cannot be easy,
But when we're queasy,
It seems the grave is just what we crave.
--- Daniel Ford
The word TAPHEPHOBIA's neat;
Though I though it played
As someone afraid,
Of gooey, sweet, "Salt Water" treat.
--- Chris Papa
The frighening end and death of me,
For numbers thirteen
Here cannot be seen
In buildings much taller than a tree.
--- Daniel Ford
I give all people a try.
It's just that I can't
Quite stomach their chant,
And would rather have white bread than rye.
--- B Smith
Often afflicted men of the range,
Whose friends were the cows,
No buildings did house,
No truck with members of the grange.
--- Daniel Ford
Eat fries, schnitzel, and herbs.
They sometimes eat fish,
Which isn't a dish,
So let them stay out of our burbs.
--- B Smith
With neighbor, or alien hue.
If I don't like me,
It's easy to see
That I'd worry about liking you.
--- Chris Papa
Cleopatra said, brimming with bile.
"I never boffed Caesar,
I'm not a prick teaser,"
Said Cleo, the queen of denial.

Modern "dis" signifies "disrespect."
I grew up with phonics;
Don't savvy ebonics.
Guess I'm not politically correct.
--- Phil Kinay
Me not climbing that hill, for I find
The strain on my knees
Is painful, so please
I rather think I'm dis-inclined."
--- Tiddy Ogg
When the ice-cream girl tripped with her tray.
She was wearing no pants;
She stopped the performance,
But the audience enjoyed the dis-play.
--- Jim Weaver Collection
Was one night when the ghosts caused a riot.
With their howling and moans,
Chain-rattling and groans,
They filled the whole place with dis-quiet.
--- Jim Weaver Collection
When a robber, exceedingly skilled,
And as sly as a fox,
Removed the cash box,
And like whisky, the shop was dis-tilled.

But Cain knew it quick as a sable,
When he found a stone
In the ground he had sown,
That a blow to the head would dis-able.

Could only give us the chance to choose
Some bias from the right,
But every night,
It's left views we must DISABUSE.
--- Norm Brust
(From trying a awkward backhand-age),
Left the pro, at point deuce,
With an injured caboose,
And, of course, now at some dis-advantage.
--- Mike
By a group of bees that had swarmed.
The damage was great;
They had to amputate,
so now you could say he's dis-armed.
--- Claire
I must shoot you--and yet you are charming."
But her plan was undone
When he wrestled her gun
And remarked, "I am also disarming."
--- Mark Grenier P9108
Hangs a bell which was rung to relieve
The boredom each morn."
He looked at me with scorn.
I could tell that he must dis-bell-eave.
--- Tiddy Ogg
With reasons and whys which are late.
Though who can comare
Such whining, "Unfair!
We did not then even copulate."
--- Daniel Ford
A confused and panicky state.
We should have concern
When some don't discern
Words it does DISCOMBOBULATE.
--- Darryl
