There are several talented poets here, give us your details. I don't think it's very romantic though, giving a girl a poem about her you couldn't even be arsed to write.

What rhymes with 'spremed'?
Posted by Sul, 20:16, 4th November 2003:
 
penned?

As in:
I'm writing a little ditty
About the last time that I spremed
Its supposed to be kinda witty
This ditty that I've penned
Posted by chandler, 20:31, 4th November 2003:
 
I'm writing a little ditty
About the last time that I spremed

cos my sleeves have come un-hemmed

As the flacid became hard stemmed

And then my neck got sticky
And all my spots were gone
Yes, Sprem is just the tricky
For soft skin that lasts 'so' long
Posted by cal, 08:34, 5th November 2003:
 
(change "lasts long" to "lasts so long" and it scans better)

The tectonic plates were a drifting
While I was out shoplifting
I didnt get collered
As the guards werent that bothered
While the earth was violently shifting

An earthquake makes the floor shake
While bukkake makes your face ache

I always thought it was more like "this is making my backache". Ruins my poem your way :(
Posted by Mr.Nishi, 17:23, 11th November 2003:
 
A bukkake star I hunted,
An ugly slag I got,
But I got what I wanted
With my nasty facial shot.

Once day when we were shagging
Your face turned to fright
I wasn't found wanting:
For your anas is so tight.

With my money shot I wanted,
To try something new
Your face looked so haunted
When I shat all over you

Faecalphiles and Faecalphobes
Won't spot those alien probes,
They visit me during the day
In their horrid attempts to make me gay.

%$^&^&%*^% on the wanting line

Having gotten into this purile mood I think i can scribe more...W007


Sprem is gloopy and white,
And can land anywhere
But it gave her such and fight
When I spremed in her hair


%^#&^#$&$ and so it was gone...

I'll risk being sued for copyright infringement just to repost Mr Nishi's poem...

I see you standing nude
All raw and defiled
I wish you all the best
My lovely little child.

You just fantastic,
I love you to bits.
I want to tear off your bra,

Hello these poems are really good
Posted by WarHead, 12:15, 4th December 2003:
 
There are several talented poets here, give us your details. I don't think it's very romantic though, giving a girl a poem about her you couldn't even be arsed to write.

I wanted to write some verse for you
Cos you're a touch of class
But when I thought about it
I found I couldn't be arsed.

(You have to say class as 'clarss' for this to work, really.)
Posted by Grim..., 12:18, 4th December 2003:
 
(Or, indeed, 'Clar-sed').
Posted by WarHead, 12:24, 4th December 2003:
 
"You're a touch of clar-sed" ?? Doesn't make sense.
Posted by Grim..., 12:25, 4th December 2003:
 
No, but it rhymes with 'Arsed'...
Posted by Mr.Nishi, 12:27, 4th December 2003:
 
So you have to say class in a really classy way then...oooo irony and stuff

As bored as i was
I thought of you
But only because
I was taking a poo.
Posted by Grim..., 12:29, 4th December 2003:
 
Saying 'class' in a classy way isn't ironic.

An American singer doing a song called 'Ironic' - now that's ironic.
Posted by chandler, 13:00, 4th December 2003:
 
yeah, though Alanis is Canadian.
Posted by WarHead, 13:17, 4th December 2003:

Yep, works for me.

I wish I was a squirrel;
so graceful; so free;
like my father,
digging peat, in the bogs of ireland,
like his father before him,
the spade, and the flax dam,
he bends, and lifts a potato,
new created, from the earth.

But now I must lift the spade,
like my father before me,
as if my wife, behind the cake,
like a demented bride, screamed
words into my head, written,
with the spade
in the turf.

My branch, of the tree of my father;
the roots of his hair tangled and old,
And to descend, upon my wife,
cruching her with my ten ton bulk,
And bringing forth a child.
Posted by WarHead, 13:46, 5th December 2003:
 
Cruching?

Is this an Oirish thing?

I think we should be told.
Posted by chandler, 14:40, 5th December 2003:
 
like my father,
digging peat, in the bogs of ireland,

ahhh Seamus Heaney poetry, that was such fun :/

Poetry sucks.
Posted by November Eclectica, 18:08, 5th December 2003:
 
here are some poems that I wrote. You can use these if you like:

Needing
Do you remember a love you once had,
a feeling inside that you could not hide,
a want, a need, a fear?

Searching these empty streets,
on a journey of inner peace.
In a dark alley I can see a light,
a memory of your intoxicating kiss -
never knew it could be like this.

I crave those nights, you holding me tight,
our bodies becoming one in the twilight,
your tender kisses, your hands twisted in my hair,
our gentle whispers, the games we love to play.

Music plays on; my heart skips a beat,
the ink flowing to the paper, bittersweet memories.
Baby come hold me tonight, your touch,
your kisses I crave - cure this insatiable appetite.
Posted by November Eclectica, 18:08, 5th December 2003:
 
Know you from a distant past


Know you from a distant past,
Don't recall the time so vast,
Memory overtakes our souls,
Brief encounters of our love,
Destiny has brought us near,
To enjoy the pleasures known to man,
Who by virtue of their thoughts,
Have reached ethereal heights,

Your face rejoices in the light,
From the threshold of the Gods,
Observing from its two blue seas,
A universe so endlessly,
Your thoughts hath taken me to the star,
Where space and time indeed do end,
There is no feeling that can match,
The passion that envelops us,

The greatest moments of our lives,
Casualness has brought on-line,
At brief intervals of our paths,
Our roads have intertwined,
To allow us to comfort,
The solitude of each other's fears,
The liberty of our souls enslaved,
In the domain of life on earth,

It's ineffable to describe,
The pain, the tears and the distress,
Caused when we've to let us go,
To other worlds away from all,
Knowing that our place should be,
In the garden of the poet,
Unscathed by vain ego & forevermore,
In peace and harmony with creation.

Where are you now?

Once upon a time I had a person in my life who I could talk to at any hour, any day, any month or any year.

We took a journey and along the way we lost what mattered most, each other. We found ourselves tempted by faith, and yet we succeeded in banishing it away.

I always thought I would have that person forever, but I guess life just doesn't work out that way.
You used to soothe me. You used to swear with cross conviction that you'd be there. Where are you now?

Well, I'm good- One of a kind, but I rather be two and still speak my mind. I miss talking with you and I could hem and haw but I'll still cut right through, I don't need nothing, nothing but you.
Well, I lit a candle, I light it mostly ever night in remembrance of someone I once held dear. Where are you now?

Weren't we something back then, Thick as thieves, we made each other laugh and ever so happy. Who would have ever thought you and me would let forever come to used to be.

Well what are your convictions now my friend because you used to swear that you would never let go and that you would always be there. I held my bargain, I did my part. I loved you the way you wanted to be loved from my soul, you held my heart, but who would have ever thought you and me would let forever come to used to be.

Remembered for.....

I don't know you
You don't know me
But that doesn't stop
Me drinking my hot sweet tea

I saw you once in the supermarket
You turned away from me
As I was staring endlessly
At you, you were taking a pee

Remember? The old lady
Who called forth security
They grabbed you, you cried
Out, endlessly

In fact I'm glad that I
Don't know you, you see
Coz taking a pee in the supermarket
Is really not what one should be

Remembered for.......

Okay, an earthquake. I shall set my mind to it.

Try something like:

D--Boooom
---Shiver
---Was that the earth?
A--Did you hear the boom quake shiver
---Or was it just my kick-ass verse

Em-Yeah my boom quiver baby gonna rock your world
---Cause you know my boom shake quiver's gonna make you fucking hurl!


And you can come up with the rest

I think that would be the latter mate :)
It is quite hard not to come in from the pub and go "I know,
i'll write something really witty and clever on iamcal before
i go to bed"
Almost as bad as calling your ex really!
You look in the morning and go "oh god..."
I'm surprised i only put that truck/grenade/alien baloon game up last nite really..

Hold up perci, mate. I may have noted it down badly. Let me see if I can find a mic and really cause myself some grief tomorrow.

Not that I doubt your musical talent at all. Its just that it seems hard to go wrong wrong with a D-A-Em song.
Posted by Perclissigi, 00:00, 8th March 2004:
 
Go for it :)
If you need somewhere to host the audio, you can mail it to me mate.
Not that i want you to make a fool of yourself, but more because
i want to hear what this sounds like!

I know I cant sing btw, nor have I any decent recording facility but hopefully it gets the point across :/
Posted by Perclissigi, 01:28, 8th March 2004:
 
I get the point! not bad at all mate :D
I totally mis-interpreted the style you were going for, i was expecting
more kind of rap-metal with those lyircs. Hmmm, i'll see if i can throw together
a version...

The earthquake of Vesuvius
---------------------------

Was a destructive one
Causing complete terror
Depriving life and fun

When the earthquake occurred
It was unexpected
Before the people realized it
Many of them were dead!

It struck Pompeii
Without any pity
Destroying life
And many a city

It left fear in the minds
Of those who escaped
It left many people
Starving and naked

The victims of the calamity
Gave painful yelps
And a little could be done
With the given help

People all over the world
Tried to do their best
But the victims of the quake
May never know any rest
Posted by Saltation, around 1st November 2007:
 
Centuries passed
As they strove in their beds
To get any rest
But alas they were deads.
