Life Is Beautiful

[Remec]

Sunset

Slow, subtle shifts of color and tone
in the setting summer sky mirror the
way I reflect on the years since you
were here before me,
with me,
and I find that my corners of my mouth
still try turning themselves upwards
as images of your smile and echoes
of your laughter flit around misty eyes,
atrophied ears.

The sun came out today
and quickly set
I had a happy memory
now I forget

Prune juice works finely
I quickly shit
I'll write me some mo' poetry
I'm sure it'll hit

I just might do that. I'm not an expert poet. But I know how to string words and phrases together.
watch this space

ain't none of us 'experts' here - we're all just playing with building blocks, and sometimes the result's a serendipitous something fabulous, though more often a fixer-upper.

get on it

For Trix’s thread

(Yeah I just wrote this fucker (sorry: ‘piece’…it was pease easy!
Just start with a line.
Verb at the beginning of line 2.
A comment or a qualifier perhaps for line 3.
And the result is last.

So…here we go. With the hope that this post won’t drag it down further.
(waiting for my connection back into Lit…I get an error page, often.)

(ahem – (cough)…
(Rattles paper).
Jeeze dis is nervewrackin’ man!
Oh, please DO get on with it!
<snerk> (Smith, N. c 2014)..note the reference to a fellow Litster.
Maybe this should be a Footnote?

<procrastinating here>
Ahem… (I’m ready), quick clearing of throat...looks up, then down again. Jeeze I’d be good at roleplaying wouldn’t I? (devil)
(looks round room, nervously. He is pissing his pants with anxiety.)

How I savoured that piece of pork.
Ate every skerrick of it,
even the burnt bits.
Couldn’t wipe the satisfied smile off my face.

How I fucked that Shanghai whore!
Fucked until I came;
then she went!
Poor but wiser, knowing I can jerk myself off better!

So, you see…it doesn’t have to be all flowery and feel good, greeting card rubbish..it can be a little..er gritty.

(going to stop here. I hope you found a smile for my little piece).

anyone who's spent a little time around here knows we rarely do 'flowery, greeting card rubbish' (though we might dwell a spell on feel-good ) and it's frequently gritty and dark and dirty. you're not reading the right threads

yes, it made me smile.
has a few punctuation issues in part one and part 2's very - umm - exuberant!!!
the opening was the best for me. maybe that makes me a shaghai whore

lols at the ma'am

Well, I've seen her purrrrrrrrr
And I ve seen her func,
But is she really a Tory?

probably! with a little neat hedge!

 

[Trixareforkids]

I'm a little firecracker
Short, not stout
Light me up and
watch me spout
I keep going, 'til
my flame burns out


(Or as long as I feel like procrastinating)
