| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 3/8/2006 5:52:48 PM | Hello all. Hello barn-dwellers and other fellers. Hello to the lurkers and blue-collar workers.
Good to see you all. No, I'm not drunk. I've had a cup of coffee and that's it.
(Oh, and it's Breathing's birthday...wish her a happy one but don't say I told you to do it.)
And speaking of Breathing...lovely poem from a lovely gal. Thank you so much, m'dear.
Hello and welcome back to Charming...good to know that things are going well with you these days. Kids can keep a body busy and I've heard they can change a person's life forever. I'm not a great fan of children -- sure, I like them fine but at a distance. Sorta like bagpipes and marching bands. Keep dry and thanks for coming by to the barn! Take care of yourself and the little 'un.
A poem? Well, I happen to have one with me stuffed into the band of my shorts.
This one came from a discussion of what is the proper term for the noon meal -- lunch or dinner?
================================
Screw the Name, Let’s Eat!
If there is only dinner and never any lunch Something could be missing but that’s just a hunch
Now if there is lunch and it immediately follows dinner Would that make the workday a little thinner?
Although two midday meals would be where it’s at The extra caloric intake would make us fat
That noon-eating ritual is so deeply ingrained Does it matter what name can be arranged?
I, for one, will not think of anyone as a sinner If you have lunch and not any dinner
And I would also respect you a bunch If you took your dinner instead of your lunch
===================================
So, there you have it. A perfectly vague answer.
G'night, eh? | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 3/9/2006 4:09:37 AM | Good Morning everyone
Hope your all well, a happy belated to Breathing, hope your day was as wonderful as you and the year to follow is filled with lots of love laughter and wonderful memories...
Wasn't up to par yesterday, think me got fluid in the lungs, so kinda taking it easy to see if it gets better or if I must pay a visit to the old clinic....thats lots of fun, waiting around for an hour to see the doc for not even 5 mins..lol
Well I think we must create a country song about the goat....lol let's see what we can do with these lines..
The goat is snorting coffee out his nose While wearin' my ex-wife's pantyhose
Black pantyhose and garter belt while wearing these the best he's felt
The music is a playing legs are twitching the goat is now doing the pantyhose itching
Seems that the goat has an allergy to wearing his ex's black lingerie
Okay I am lost....lol next....
Talk to you all later on when my brain can actually work... Bye Miz  | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 3/9/2006 6:23:16 AM | Goats country song
The goat is snorting coffee out his nose While wearin' my ex-wife's pantyhose
Black pantyhose and garter belt while wearing these the best he's felt
The music is a playing legs are twitching the goat is now doing the pantyhose itching
Seems that the goat has an allergy to wearing his ex's black lingerie
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He’s got a pink feathered boa And a flamingo hat that glows He painted his hooves black like pumps But they look more like camel toes
On twitching legs he stumbles Up to his Breating Dear She says “oh honey” ‘you’re looking kind of queer”
Another sneeze of coffee He couldn’t hold it in And his gater belt started popping From the stitching deep within
Snaps started flying Like being shot out from a gun And all you saw was Breathing’s back As she sprinted in full run.. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Next, LOL

------------------------------ oh its such a funny farm..:) happy belated also breathing :) | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 3/9/2006 11:55:47 AM | The leader of the barn is the old stinky goat he has many tastes and likes especially his leapord skin coat
We like the kind of goat he is but are leary about his habits from his garter belts and boas to his lucky rabbits
He now has someone around breathing is her name and now that she is here to stay things will never be the same
Her name is breathing and we are so glad she is because around the barn that lingering smell is his
SORRY GOAT>>>lol...couldn't resist, I haven't been around much to bug you so had to drop a load per say here.....still luv ya | |
|
| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 3/9/2006 5:50:15 PM | Hey Goat...was that you in the lingerie section at Zellers when they had the 2 for 1 specia......oops ....NEVER MIND.......
This is to be sung to the tune "Lucille" by Kenny Rogers....or not...up to youse guys
Ya picked a fine time to jolt him caffeine It's late at night and the Goat wants to dream The coffee he snorted Has made him feel distorted 15 denier ain't what it seems Gives you crotch rot when mixed with Caffeine
(in reference to spillage this week)
Remiss....A very happy belated to you Breathing.... I trust the celebration will continue into the weekend
Charming...daughters you got to love them...good to see you back.
Mari, Kat, Miz, Rory, Longte et al
Hugzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 3/9/2006 7:08:27 PM | Hello all. Looka all thet thar traffic here in this barn. Good to see you all here.
Om...like your quick thought and I think Breathing would send you those lupine-things that are out on the deck right now, losing their scent potency. Man, that's some strong-smelling lupinatic stuff.
Miz...hello there and good to see you again. Love the start to the country song idea Mari had. It's an idea that inspired me as well, as you'll see later. It don't matter if the mind is empty or full or in some in-between state...bring it here. My mind is on empty all the time and it never stops me.
Mari..heh heh...lovely! A pink boa? I prefer the steamy red ones, to be honest. Love the song and thank you for the idea. We're getting a lot of mileage out of it.
Om...jumping in with the chorus. Everybody now! I did sing along too.
Miz...you made me laugh with more. A leopard skin coat and I think some bright pink lipstick and a fake-n-bake tan would set it all off. Who can resist this cross-dressing country song madness? I can't.
And Pickles...that wasn't me at Zellers. I was at Value Village in the "gently used" lingerie section. You get 5 for 1 if there's skid marks in 'em. Very good to see you here again and I hope you're doing well.
Okay...here's what I got. It was based on a real live song that's stuck in my head.
Giddyap!
=====================================
It Smells Worse than a Tray of Cheese
(Loosely based on “Way Over Yonder in the Minor Key” by Billy Bragg, Wilco & Natalie Merchant, with apologies only to Billy Bragg)
I once knew a goat from ol’ Muskagee I fed him a pot of cold coffeee But then he became fond of me And followed me back to my Jeep Cherokee
He stunk worse than mouldy cheese The smell would make you wheeze
Oh, li’l goaty can’t you see? I can’t keep you here with me My ma would turn me over her knee And she’d shoot you with a .303
Because you stink like mouldy cheese And the smell killed your own fleas
No detergent could clean you with ease Because you stink like mouldy cheese The smell would bring you to your knees Because you smell worse than mouldy cheese
But this is how the story goes I dressed that goat up in old pantyhose I laughed and sprayed coffee out my nose Because I couldn’t get his bra clasp closed
And he smelled like mouldy cheese That smell would bring you to your knees
My ma caught me in mid-wheeze Then she cut a switch from the hickory tree That stung a lot worse than a hive of bees But it didn’t stink like mouldy cheese
It didn’t stink like rotten cheese And I didn’t pause to wheeze
Then she said: “The goat is no more!” And she booted his pantyhosed ass out the door I dropped him off on the corner of Wentz and Fourth Now he makes money as a ten-dollar whore But he still stinks like cheese And gets mounted from behind with ease
====================================
It ain't pretty, but it'll work. Thanks to all! Even the lurkers!
(Hello Breathing-dear...let's hit the showers, eh?)
G'night, folks...keep the smiles coming! | |

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 3/9/2006 7:16:42 PM | LMAO

| The Poetry Barn and Eatery Posted: 3/9/2006 7:17:41 PM | Poor Breathing Scrubbing the Goat for her birthday .. .
Those undies with the skid marks at 5 for 1 sound cheap Pity people who had them had a tendency to leak
Breathing if you dare to shower with the Goat better bring a scrubbing brush with carbolic soap
Maybe could be better if scraping round his tush go out to the barn first to grab the wire brush
.. . Lurking away quietly now .. . | |

G'night you crazy kids. Pickles, watch those staples...I have more if you need them. A steady hand, a staple gun and a couple of beers and I can have you back in shape in no time.
Mari...you're a nut! Bless your heart!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Silence is not always golden, for it needs its balance too, noise is its accompaniment, be it sweet, or brutal sooth.
Both are there, but some may miss, noises to be found, for deaf hears not, like silence speaks, to ears that have no sound.

good weekend folks | |
