Do we have a poetry thread anywhere?

I dont Recall seeing one.

[Bricktop]

OK...



I'll start...



There once was a lad called Keeper

Who was known as a very poor sleeper

When asked why that was

He replied, "Its because

she keeps wanting it harder and deeper".

[keeper]

I met a man named Leo

a man i have respect and is my hero

if asked an explanation

he would ramble a dictation

and pretend he was a superhero.

[Bricktop]

There once was a lass named Fashionista

Who's mod went mad and dissed her

This charming young lass

Kicked him out on his ass

And thats the last thing we saw of that mister.

Pretend? Pretend?



I have RED underwear with an S on it!!!

The once was a yank named Renee

Who oft let her mouth run away

Like a typical yank

She was the size of a tank

And rumours abound that she's gay...

[Bricktop]

There once was a lass named RW

Who did all she could not to trouble you

But if you got on the wrong side

She'd bullwhip your hide

And afterwards try to cuddle you...

[Bricktop]

There once lived a lass named Annie

Who was concerned at the size of her fanny

She tried to lose weight

But it didn't go great

Now she looks like her nanny...

[Bricktop]

There once lived a lass named Azhya

Who's legs would certainly faze ya

They went all they way to her ass

which was top of the class

But lacked the stroke of a razor...

[Bricktop]

Young Romero was a fine socialist

Using his words, rather than fist

To argue the case

Til blue in the face

But it was fun to watch him get pissed...

[RW]

So true.

[Bricktop]

OK, something more serious...



The Electronic Truth...



I am the electric truth; pure data unsullied by emotion

I flow through your wires like blood through your veins

Transporting the necessities of your mind's survival

Impelled by current and amp; the life force of all future knowledge

and the custodian of the past, in words, images and sound

Fact and fantasy all fused into a single thoroughfare of thought

My pixels hold your lascivious lust and secret sins of the flesh

Your vile crimes and carnage dispersed in wicked triumph

I share your shame for the world to see and lament in its demise

I am your reality bytes, inescapable and addictive, untenable memories

You can neither ignore or turn away from facts, cold and hard

Stored within my neurones, servers, nodes and hardhearted drives

I dispense your lies, preying with pretty words on the disheartened

I show them love, formed by electrons and shown as text on screens

I can taunt, soothe, succour, humiliate, betray, and deceive

With the ease of water coursing from high impenetrable mountains

I am electric. I do not exist, yet you cannot rid me from your hollow lives

I connect and tear apart, join and destroy, link and disperse

everything you ever believed, within you and without you

I own the infinite human mind, its frailties, its hopes and dreams

All passed willingly to me by the worshippers at my digital altar

Fear me, despise me, curse with vile invectives and despair

For you can never disempower me. The switch now lays beyond your reach.



Copyright, me.

There once was an old geezer named Specter

Who thought himself RW's protector

He was convinced of his sass

But he was long out of gas

When his limpness failed to become erector...

[Anonymous]

There once was a lass named Fashionista

Who's mod went mad and dissed her

This charming young lass

Kicked him out on his ass

And thats the last thing we saw of that mister.

You are a good poet SPECTRE.
