The era of pot and Woodstock;
Rank flower power:
Avoidance of shower,
The grubbiest lifestyle ad hoc.
--- Chris Papa
Could bite his lip and make it seem
That he really cared
And all your pain shared,
While eyeing new chicky to cream.
--- Chris Papa
Who let loose a blast, not a ZEPHYR.
The smell dissipated
But the lad was fated
To live life much wiser, but deafer.
--- Chris Papa
To play game she thought ZERO-SUM.
For as she had reckoned,
He came in second,
Just leaving her there cold and numb.
--- Chris Papa
Possessed in his purse, zero-sum.
Sans cash for his dish,
As wash was his wish;
The outcome? He's still no income.
--- Gary Hallock
The game in which some heroes hum.
The problem, of course,
In matters of force,
while Rome does burn, fiddling Nero's numb.
--- Daniel Ford
If young man knew just what he should do.
Wham-bam as you can
Is not always best plan,
To loosen a tightened up screw.
--- Elois
With his chances ZEROTH against Dewey.
The mustachioed crime basher
Should defeat haberdasher,
But predictions turned out to be hooey.
--- Elois
As frigid as one might discover.
But urgent groom tried
To get warm inside
From frostbite, he'll never recover.
--- Chris Papa
Requires a bit of reflection
To understand what
Its author has got,
In form of cerebral connection.
--- Chris Papa
Or even camel hair velveteen,
They leave me a twitchin'
From all of that itchin';
I'd trammel that stuff to smithereens.
--- Daniel Ford
She envied my outfit of ZIBELINE.
"Such nice things I lack, uh
So I think alpaca
My bags and just leave," said my siblin',
--- Gary Hallock
Cut in the style one called "zoot".
A nice girl I courted
Till her father snorted,
"Get out!" as he gave me the boot.
--- Chris Papa
Decked out in his new zoot suit.
Bod covered in ZIBELINE,
Hair slicked with vaseline,
The picture of fashionable youth.
--- Norm Brust
Up here in land of ice and snow.
In icy breezes
To keep you from "freezes",
One wraps up in down, don't you know.
--- Barb
Neck, chest, and fanny; each arm.
A hood with a ruff
Will be just enough
To keep you from Old Winter's harm!
--- Barb
Might just be clerks at Abercrombie
& Fitch, though I know
They always go slow,
And not to seem busy as some be.
--- Daniel Ford
When young, might be seen as gazelle.
But now that I've aged,
The animal caged
I see is the hippo from Hell.
--- Chris Papa
There was a fat cat made of gold,
Some snake with a smile,
Crying crocidile,
And sometimes a bull's phallus bold.
--- Chris Papa
No hint he was heteromorphic.
She wound up in his bed,
Where she learned, to her dread,
His love making style -- ZOOMORPHIC.
--- Frank
To say if I am. That's because
The speed of a steed
Is just what I need.
But I'm more than a sloth than a hoss.
--- Gary Hallock
Of Medusa's grim petrified glare;
Through intercourse orphic,
Her hair ZOOMORPHIC,
Turns dishes like him to stoneware.

When, of slinky gal he got a whiff,
And likely as not,
When feeling hot,
Found that his whole body was stiff.
--- Chris Papa
Does hold to the bottom quite tight.
For its life sessile,
Like other Cecil,
Depends on matching bottoms to site.
--- Daniel Ford
With waving motion and colors bright.
They're achored to stones
And they have no bones,
And are even bereft of sight.
--- Norm Brust
Who lead ZOOPHYTIC existence.
These "babies" never wed
Or leave their birth bed,
Anchored with sponge-like persistence.
--- Chris Papa
Position in the human race,
Somewhat circumscribed;
Can best be described
As "between a rock and a hard place.
--- Chris Papa
A rotten position to be.
Like hard place and rock,
Situation ad hoc,
Seems Scylla-Charybdis to me.
--- Chris Papa
With but little reason to rejoice.
Strategy defied,
With no place to hide,
Presenting dilemma, Hobson's choice.
--- Daniel Ford
Is a bummer however it goes.
You can't run and hide,
But you must decide
Between options -- once sucks and one blows.
--- Eric Seaberg
But it was a generous gift.
I use it a lot
But it hasn't got
All the answers I want. I've been stiffed!
--- Kiss Karen
Respect for you, it does grow.
That "tallywacker's"
Twisted my knackers.
It's making me feel very slow.
--- Archie
But for now I'll just tighten the screws
Of my thinking hat,
'Til I fall on my prat,
And pumpern to hear your peeyoos
--- Kiss Karen
Don't let your nards get all numb.
A tallywacker's
Probably kept near your knackers,
And makes all the women go hummm...
--- Kiss Karen
Could lead to us both being fed.
With wine just for two,
It might be that you
Could possibly take me to bed!
--- Archie
To this next, who has a nice head.
He is called a sealgh
And can live on whelk,
And uses Scots rocks as a bed.
--- Archie
A viognier, enjoy a few sups.
The water's ker-plonk
Recalls I brought conch
And fresh tautog to give the wet pups.
--- Archie
But then I may find myself sinking
Into the small death
'Tween this and that breath,
And all of the fish leaves me stinking
--- Kiss
A hieroglyph on Rx blank,
It brings derision.
He keeps cheery vision,
And whistles his way to the bank.
--- Chris Papa
I hope they will use good CHIROGRAPHY,
Listing every good deed
So that it's a good "read",
With praise for my female topography!
--- Barb
But Swahili's good as can be;
A Bantu-like tongue
Spoken well among
East African tribes near the sea.
--- Larry
Where one who would make exposition
By page or by lip,
They then by sly slip,
Get caught in mistake's repetitition.
--- Chris Papa
And for some examples I'm seking,
But I can not tel
When there's one. What the hel?
I'm slow, HAPLOGRAPHICLY speaking.
--- Gary Hallock
Happens less in lexicography
Than in speech direct,
Where words like dissect
Are altered in strange phonography.
--- Daniel Ford
Like musical notes on a staff,
May cover all parts,
As do lines in charts,
Though some think them snakes in the graph.
--- Daniel Ford
Unless as rebus they're sublime.
For them, like Chinese
Ideograms please,
I comprehend less than from mime.

He'd get up and #
And each night he'd take on all ,s

He'd nip off (he said for a flash),
Worn out and weary, he'd
Fight for a .
But thereafter, off he would -

A { of geese, whose eggs she sold
For their price it was noted,
Many $ were "ed
But they were 24 ^ gold
--- Bill
No doubt made considerable racket
Each time that they laid
An egg golden grade,
Helping the collector to track it.
--- Daniel Ford
Computers have joined in the race,
And added "sign bliss",
With figures like this,
The omnipresent, blythe : )
--- Chris Papa
And it does more than the time pass!
It's fun for me
And I can see
LOGOGRAPHS might be a blast!
--- Maggie
Histography, of the past it is telling.
Pick scholar's pursuit,
But if you like loot,
Pornography is the best selling.
--- Norm Brust
Most useful to have as a skill,
To write and make sense,
And not cross the fence,
Ot illiterate overkill.
--- Anon
Is difficult in geography;
What my tongue calls right
In another's sight,
Becomes malignant typography.
--- Daniel Ford
As precise as cartography,
Sometimes is bludgeon
Used by a curmudgeon
To raise his plethysmography.
--- Daniel Ford
If you'd get a smart e-mail out.
Without your spell-check,
Thoughts can be a wreck;
Signs of an illiterate lout.
--- Chris Papa
For some guys, for reasons complex.
But to my good taste
It just seems a waste,
Unless it involves signing checks.
--- Chris Papa
Shows if big head swelling or static.
But it also can show
The regions below
And detect influence Viagratic.
--- Chris Papa
Hidden far above Dead Sea waves,
Had little to do
With Biblical stew
And much more with wine barrel's staves.
--- Daniel Ford
Was lacking attribution, enough;
Interesting but
Couldn't "make cut";
Had to swallow rejection slip, tough.
--- Chris Papa
Solved messages, the very thing;
STANOGRAPHY tool
Used in grammar school,
To sense of deep mystery bring.
--- Chris Papa
Makes invisible ink, you see;
Dip your pen in it,
Write on white a bit,
When it's dry, no note will there be.
--- Larry
Flame below paper must handle.
Words appear above,
"Battle" or "Love",
Which then can be hidden is sandal.
--- Larry
May lead to story which one harrows,
As suffers Clinton,
Lewinsky's hintin',
Outrageous fortune's slings and arrows.
--- Daniel Ford
Is just a big pain in the rear;
It often explains,
Why some guys with brains
Think with the wrong organ, I fear.
