| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/11/2006 6:25:05 PM | Howdy all! Good to see ya'll back here in the barn.
Pickles...yes, the Goat is corporate and has been since before joining this site in -- uhm...let's see...May of 2004. No suits, though...this is Saskatchewan, after all. I work in the corporation, but I exist in my own space. Love your words...they're far more uplifting and humourous than any memo I have ever read.
Om...don't worry too much about the rats. They mostly come out at night...mostly..
And it's always good to have a dragon around in case the vermin get out of control. Howdy Longte!
Hello to my dear Breathing...who, even now, sits mere feet away on her own PC. Lovely poem, m'dear.
And now I shall drop the daily droppings riiiigggght about here:
=========================
Corporate Fakeover
Dorks and knobs Some of them Geralds And some are named Bob See them congregate right outside Each has a cigarette and a nasty stride If you don’t look out, they’ll take you for a ride All those Geralds, Eds and Bobs They’re all dorks and knobs
==========================
I'm just glad Wednesday is over. Two more to go to the Blessed Weekend, whereupon I will be moist again. Wet. As. Spring.
Stay tuned.
G'night! | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/12/2006 5:26:10 PM | How-DEE!
Very little time tonight, so it'll be a post and run night. Howdy, Om!
=========================
Adams and No Family
Bryan Adams is coming to town And, some may ask, who is he? He wrote a song about '69 in 1983
Give him credit and don't put him down He's not as good a great beer fart But he's much better than Corey Hart
=========================
He's here and in concert in, oh, 7 or 8 minutes from now. No, I didn't get tickets -- the prospect of seeing him in concert leaves me overwhelmed with indifference.
Well, that'll be it for the goat tonight. G'night, eh? | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/13/2006 8:02:24 PM | Hello all. Hello Barn. Hello Goat.
Oh, hello daily poem!
=======================
We Push Paper
The time has come, the boss did say When we must process the annual T-4’s Tax time does roll around again A Methuselah Ford with rusty doors
We did strain and we did struggle Just like sawyers with daunting loads We worked all day to generate paper Man, did we feel like total choads
Our efforts were not for naught The boxes, to the brim, were filled We had celebratory coffee For all the trees we had killed
When it was done, we did rest Many documents were set to export In our eight-hour day we made enough To build a really cool fort
=============================
The weekend's here. My pants fell off as soon as I walked in the door and they won't go back on until Monday. Let the giblets hang freeeeee!
G'night! | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/13/2006 8:20:43 PM | Da Barn , what a great lil place y'ar..
om - - Hello and thanks. I thought the name fitting .
My dearest Goat - - I knew you had a poem lurking in that mind of yours….. You pulled it out of ,,,,,,hmmm ,,,,,,the air?
~~
Flickers of life fly by Angels With fallen wings Lost in flight
Tired of the fight Stilled By the silent reflection In the night
~~
Well, it is Friday night ...That means: It. Is. The. Weekend!!!! Ahhhhh...... Sweet dreams ................ | |

good weekend folks ! | |
|
| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/14/2006 5:39:43 PM | Howdy all. I got nothing in my head today, so I'll improvise something. Don't expect anything too deep here...the brain is a little off today.
Hi Om and hello Breathing-dear. Good to see you here -- or, rather were here last night.
Okay...one crappy poem coming right up:
==========================
Boo Didst Spew Wilst on Mountain Dew
I once knew a dog named "Boo" Whatever he would eat he would spew One day we gave him some Mountain Dew And all he wanted to do was screw
Boo tried to hump so many things Watches, shoes and someone's rings He even tried to screw "We May Be Kings" He wouldn't stop even if the fat lady sings
We turned him loose and that worked great He came back when it was very very late Presumably he tried to find a proper mate Boo would've been more relaxed if he could masterbate
=========================
Ick. I would apologize for that, but I warned you. Warned myself too. Ick.
Let's have a haiku for good measure:
====================
One dark beer in hand Occasionally resting Over on the desk
===================
Okay..so that weren't so great. I must have something else in the Tickle Trunk...ah, here we go...some lovely bot-generated poetry:
==================
The grapes of wrath have surely gone bad Windows stand open for angels to enter So I guess he can only be sad We love each other, per aspera ad aster
=====================
Lovely and confusing. I'd better go before things get worse. Be good...hugs and handshakes to all. See you tomorrow, eh? | |
|
| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/14/2006 6:04:02 PM | Howdy all,
A post for Pickles Dear!!!!
Pickles is not feeling well So I’ll post for both of us….
Plans may take a back seat sometimes But the excited will be the same Think of all the sun and warmth Down playing in Mexico’s game
Wish I was going with I think this cold is for the birds But I need to stay back And leave ya’ll with words
So get better soon girl And tell them doc.s to hurry Cause you got plans And you’re itching to scurry…
Yeah, that oughta make ya laugh some, hahahahahaha
Hugs all

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/15/2006 10:37:20 AM | Whups! Almost slipped to page two. Get on up there, you ol' barn, you.
Hello all. Just a quick sermon about a favourite subject of mine. I got the fever bad today...
Here we go...
===========================
Psalm 81 – The Book of Goat
Blessed be the World Cup!
Thy Lard is excited beyond belief this year He hath caught Footie Fever This is a World Cup year And that round little ball shall be praised Over several pints of Guinness And whatever else may be around the place
True, Canada hath not qualified for this World cup But Thy Lard is very used to it Since the Canadian team hath not qualified since 1986 And were bounced out immediately
And there is no Scottish team in this World Cup Sad to say…but there are others to cheer for And the best of all…it’s wall-to-wall soccer For several weeks in June and July this year
For North America seems to be a soccer-free zone Where one cannot find a good game unless one subscribes To those weird European channels Where they show soft porn at two in the afternoon And bad non-English speaking soap operas And the occasional footie game late in the evening.
But, for a few short weeks in June every four years Soccer comes to CBC and TSN And the world becomes a better and happier place
Now, Thy Lard is going to watch a taped game Between Germany and Ireland From four years ago To help Him get over the itch To take his soccer ball outside and kick it at some Passing vehicles
Then, there will be beer.
Amen
==========================
Okay I must scratch my itchy itches. See youse later, eh? | |

""Then, there will be beer""
No wonder I feel at home here with a bucket full of icy beer waiting right beside my bale while the Goat is telling tales
Aussie team got in the Cup won't get far, but it's enough So give to them a Dragon cheer then drink another icy beer
Aussies have a bit of skill but don't think they'll beat Brazil yet perhaps they might get near Meanwhile have another beer
Everyone can gather close cheer the team they like the most For every goal thats scored I swear I will have another beer .. . | |
|
| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/15/2006 5:26:55 PM | BEER AND FOOTBALL
I've opened up my first beer with longte; We're watching the Aussies and Brazilians go to it. Someone just came 'round with something wrong. Tea? On the idiot box it's a Brazilian Wax job as the guard, they flow through it,
Striking a wide swath across the clear green fields of sun. I crack open another beer, and the Aussies are falling about. Brazil is laughing, the net is rippling with goals, what fun ! It's now 5 - 0 and the South American soccer hoods are having a shout.
Guzzling in the late afternoon, I aver to the commentators and belch. longte is grimacing at this outrage, as I finish another frosty jar. I bet him Brazil, I hope on payment he doesn't welsh. The Aussies are beginning to get feathered and tarred.
One more icy beer and the screen starts to get fuzzy; The men is green shorts are wobbling on hazy dots in flight. longte's shouting at his home team, that's 'cuz he Doesn't want to fork over the big bucks without a fight.
The numbers and forms on the telly don't make any more sense After another few beers, so I walk outside and fire up a stogey. Along comes a wayward soccer clan bouncing a ball, making dents In parked cars as they whoop it up, when the ball hits an old fogey
Square on the jaw, now the bugger chases them down the block. I wobble back inside, quaff one more brew, and fall on the couch. I can just see through bleary eyes the final score, 6- 0, as I mock longte's home squad, but with losing a thousand he's feeling like a grouch.
"That's OK", I intone, "double or nothing, I'll take Senegal over South Korea, And give you a goal and a-half, I'm confident two thousand you'll owe me". We shake on it, and I collapse in an alcoholic heap. No fear, hee- aw ! If those Senegalese throw in a clunker, I'll just get their female mascot to blow me. | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/16/2006 1:08:11 PM | Hello fellow barn dwellers....
Yes I am alive....lol...just been having a brain fart I guess you can say...and trying to do some changes this year, so got lots on my mind...
Anyway, hope your all doing well, I am always lurking and reading and this place is still my haven, must be the lovely goat smell that attracts me to this place..lol I guess you get immune to it after awhile, right breathing?...
Well here is a little tidbit I wrote,for those of you who read mari's thread sorry for the double post, but like I said brain fart...lol
Trailing Tears....
The tear trickled down her face Seemed to be lost in the wrong place Why did it silently fall here? What brought out this lonely tear?
By the window she sits rocking away Her eyes staring ahead never stray In her own world all alone Pondering life and what she has done
Distant memories plague her mind Haunting images seek to find A place to rest to stay in deep Forever diminishing her needed sleep
Images haunt her every night Blinding images block her fight Remembrance of times long past Fleeting thoughts that always last
Why she wonders must it be That at night I continue to always see My past come to life again Will peace I somehow ever win?
The tears still fall down her face Slowly but at a steady pace Seeking yet never do they find Peace at last from the images in her mind....

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/16/2006 4:55:53 PM | Hello all and hello to Longte, Rory and Miz.
I see there are a couple of other footie fans here with me. I completely forgot that Australia's in the Cup this time around. That's good...after I noticed Scotland wasn't in I was so heartbroken that I couldn't concentrate any more.
Go Oz!! Woot!!
Hey there, Om...just saw you snuck in there. Footie is a fine sport and is an excellent excuse to get cranked up on Guinness and yell at the telly.
And hello, Miz...you brought such an incredible poem with you today. That one should be posted as many places as you can find. You have really outdone yourself and I'm honoured that you chose the barn as one of the places for it to be.
As for me...I will foul the air with this:
============================
(Several Short Poems of Feargal O’God)
Introducing Feargal
An Irishman named Feargal O’God Had a most tremendous and fabulous bod But, for women, he cared not a sniff And loved the sheep When they pushed back from the edge of a cliff
=============================
I'm so bad at this limerick thing, so I tried a bit of a compromise. It's part limerick and part dirty poem...there may be more because I like the name of the fella.
Okay...take care of each other. Hugs and handshakes n' stuff. | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/17/2006 1:06:47 AM | for pickles.
TOMORROW, YES !, I AM TAKING THE DAY OFF
Tomorrow I am free of numbers, monetary goals and quick-witted adjustments. I will walk the streets in ridiculous paraphernalia, and inspect the dust vents Of a street, any street, in any rainy block while singing in obscure ostinato. If a panhandler interrupts with beseeching beer-breath, I will call the 'ho
And have her waylay him with her ways in the bleak byways of no ways. I will unleash my enthusiasm for mumbly-peg, imported cheese, womens' sashays, Unused ashtrays, kitschy souvenirs in long-forgotten windows, gumdrops And oilpans neglected on the oil-soaked floor of automotive body shops.
I will unfold my arms of benign objectivity and frolic westward unto the margins of the sea, Grappling most noisily with stuttering foreign language laws in stilted jabs of glee. Siphoning back a lunatic twinge of most merry and fortuitous affronts, I'll look with mild approval at the outdoor markets with their sidewalk entertainers' stunts.
Besieged on all sides by libretto-besotted wannabes in torch-and-twang garb, I'll confer upon the magic-card reader behind grimy windows of the one named Barb. Foisted before me, a Jack of Spades renders an unmistakeable omen of delight, So I'll head out into the damp, crowded arteries of chloroformed objects in the night. | |
|
| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/17/2006 6:41:20 PM | Ah...now that's what I like -- a person with a plan! Well done, Rory! You have a good time and (if you don't mind) I just may clip and keep that poetic rendering -- or rendered poetry. Wunnerful stuff.
Hello all and welcome to the barn. Tonight is an ordinary night with the ordinary thing from me. Were you expecting something special? On a Tuesday? Sorry.
Special greets and welcome back to the ailing (but still feisty) Pickles. Good to see you and I wish you a speedy recovery and you may well have that Mexican holiday. And I know you know better than to drink the water there. Thre's nothing like peeing blood out of your a***hole for seven hours to suck the fun out of any holiday. Get well, m'dear. I'll send Thy Lard some prayers and a two-four and maybe He can work something out for you.
Hello to Longte...Feargal O'God is a great name, ennit? It rolls off the tongue and slobberly drobbles down your shirt in sticky salivantic strings...ahhh, yar. Good to see you here, pardner.
Howdy to Mari, too! Saw yer in there!
(oh, and Breathing too....but she knows how I feel about her)
Okay...a poem. Continuing the epic saga of Feargal O'God:
==========================
Furthering Feargal O’God
‘Tis true that Feargal loved sheep ‘Twas a love he had ever so deep But even the sheep, he had to part He had to leave their sounds and farts
Because his love was so great and so wide He had taken it far beyond and far outside Now he spends time around his little shanty Catching wild turkeys and dressing them in panties
================================
I feel mildy violated after re-reading that one. What better way to end the day?
Adieu..bon nuit! Se youse tomorrow, eh? | |
|
| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 1/17/2006 7:51:39 PM | Feargal O'God was a horny old sod And shagged any creature that moved He rogered away for many a day Till his****came totally unscrewed
Hoots mon he did cry to passers by Will you help me screw back on me willy I need it you see to keep the sheep happy As I shag the whole flock quite silly
