Brown Boris
The first stanza is by Boris Johnson and is to be found in the article about him in The Wall Street Journal. He is referring to Gordon Brown.
The lineation and continuation is my own, referring (rather obviously) to a. a woman and b. a dog. Sphereans are encouraged to contribute. You have to stick to the metre obviously. Bring it on You great big quivering Invertebrate gelatinous Jelly of indecision. Bring it on. Cuddle up You sweet soft murmuring Congenial desirable Paragon of perfection Cuddle up Put it down You goddammed blithering Detestable maleficent Hellhound of Pandemonium Put it down |
(To All Uriah Heaps, obviously!)
Suck it up You puffed up whinging Despicable malodorous Lickspittle of victimology Suck it up |
Victimology is new to me. I like it! John

(to a reflection in the mirror of nature)
Give it up, you half-assed bollixing unteachable preposterous bucket of psychobabble. Give it up. |
Give it up
You pompous posturing Inflatable ridiculous Aper of erudition. Give it up. |
Isn't this the most wonderful form for invective??!!
Totally Shakesperian. I'm glad you started it, John! And good ones, Rick and Janet! I want more! Cally |
Spit it out
You mealy mouthed sap-sucker Arrogant ass-kisser Twisty-tongued turd taster Spit it out |
Oh - oh,
This is degenerating, like that telephone game. I may have started the process by hyphenating half-assed, which is supposed to be counted as two words. I think this deal is meant to be syllabic, thus: 1/ 1 / 1 1 / 1 / 1 / 3 4 / 4 2/ 1/4 1/1 /1 (repeat first line) no? |
Rick, I had no idea we were talking syllabics since John's two examples wouldn't fit the model you've proposed.

Who said John's winning?~,:^)
