This much I think I know
of our dear friendly Joe

When you spank him with mirth
He'll respond to you with girth

The rhyme, each line a winner
Past breakfast, lunch time, till dinner


But lonesome is the thread
Our Joe wishes dead

Part subject from post
Then you can boast

Of Joe’s own hex
The symbol ‘X’.


As free verse is my bag,
don't think me a hag...
meters do quite defy me!
But I love to rhyme,
and have a good time
So how could ya'll deny me?


What rhymes with melalope? Anyone??? LOL!!!

PS
Joe?
But more than the just scatological,
you've raised up some ghosts genealogical--
(not to mention etymological
if not entirely logical)"

How could you forgo, ?
"Gynecological"

Hoggity Poggity
Henry the Quincer
must think us sod
And seems to believe he
Omni-celestially
Posts like a God.

To answer not falser
with several answers
is like cutting in
on several dancers--
one's head starts to spin
like a waltzer.

Melalope
rhymes with calliope,
more or less--
one of my favorite muses;
or else Melalope
fits envelope, antelope,
what have you, unless:
Melalope
rhymes with a-gallop--
Which carousel horse is the loser?

Now as to my reticence
to get into medicines
that might have been zbaby's bag,
I wouldn't presume
to step in the room
when a devil like she's on the wash.

I read and I learn
but from what I discern
I have some concern
over which words to spurn

Alimone will save
those turkeys from brave
hunters, since all they’ve
learned is how to stave

Henry’s an aussie
who seems rather saucy
a delicacy
when whisked until glossy

As for Melalope
She can eat cantaloupe
beside antelope
on an alpine slope

Chris, thanks for warning
me, I won’t be fawning
cause I’m still yawning
on this Sunday morning…

Joe likes cheese on which to dine
when he is done with all that WHINE.

As of right now we do deeply thank you
but if you prefer, Roger can spank you.

Spare the rod and spoil the child.
Yes, it's a saying all of us know.
But Mel's advice doesn't drive me wild.
I'd rather spare the rod and spoil Joe.

I owe thanks to Roger--I'm not into spanking,
At least not with rods, which I prefer cranking
Not fellow to fellow. I much prefer flanking
Envelopment strategies, women outranking
All men in such matters for me and my pranking.

THE ORPHAN

Permission granted by the Pope,
they slapped me when I was three,
and so I have, to quote Bob Hope,
spanks for the memory.

Testimonials from the Front Line

I.

Not navel-gazing--not gazing, but grazing;
not terribly touching, but barely touching,
or the feasting on fleas, and the foolish clutching
mites to be shared (but moving--Amazing!--
someone somewhere): BANNED POSToh such such and suching!
