Posted: 2/7/2007 6:32:18 AM | I notice even the creator just skips over the first posts
goes on to the loser post for his continuation...
maybe I shouldn't care
or dare speak out ....
ah what is it all about.
he even skipped two posts that beat out the one he chose....
breaking continuity once again
what's with the laze my old friend? | |

what's with the laze my old friend
did you forget your meds...a definite must?
or is this just poetic chaos, a means to an end.
never the less, leave it to a woman to mend
the bonanza's been saved
with both posts' endings thrown in...
Thank God a woman saved us again!!!

which is only fair considering
the confusion started with them
but its all in good fun
we had a good run whats done is done
we change only our own when the first line gets blown
we click then we pick we delete the wrong shit
change the first line as we run out of time leaving a rhyme like we all really stoned | |

Wondering why they fly right by our contributions we honed
So lovingly set against the last line imposed or inspired
Too late at night too much wine or too wired
For poetic fantasy we leave form and try to fit
All the things we’re inclined to profess put in it
Leaving not much room for poetry and prose
Is that why we miss the last lines do you suppose? | |

Honestly I dont think about it, I just compose
Maybe I should start thinking a little more
Adding some magic, flair, and have you laughing on the floor
So when I try to be a poet from this moment on
I shall think of trying to be as graceful as a newborn fawn
All fumbly and bumbly , but me just the same
Writing poetry has become my new choice of game | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 11:46:35 AM | Writing poetry has become my new choice of game
even on days when admitably lame
whatever the fates may bring
I shall let the words sing
In rhyme
and not
these things my mind thought
are they all for naught? | |

Writing poetry has become her new choice of game My personal opinion? She's not at all lame
Her posts are quite funny and easy to rhyme
Gives a good beginning when from her last line
Often it's quite inspiring, leaving it to fate
Sometimes the best words come through really late
In the wee hours when poetic boon
Is sprinkled with the magic of the light of the moon | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 11:52:03 AM | Is sprinkled with the magic of the light of the moon
and stars in abundance
which makes all the song writer's croon
to feel this magic wandering through air
our words just flow
without a sense of care
for something flows within our space
that no matter how hard one tries it shall not be erased

leave the losing to the lovers, the running to the lame
as I wonder, ponder, grumble why anyone would care
why my, your, their, last line did not appear
the day is fraught with news, wackos every day
bolt the doors, dim the lights, poetry shuts it all away
a diaper wearing astronut a murder tried to commit
with regards to her sanity my comment is this, "If she shit, aquit"! | |

my coffe I almost did spit
who needs the TV news
when i can read all the views

on the computer screen
it's such a scream
thank you one and all ; ) | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 12:22:33 PM | thank you one and all
for stopping by this poetic hall
be sure to visit our latest exhibit
its the blue word shouting edit
you can do it ,its a posters new tool
that prevents the appearance of fools
if you find you've missed the rhyme
punch the bugger and correct it with the proper line | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 12:36:05 PM | Punch the bugger and correct it with the proper line
as most things we're dealt, they are usually fine
in the end and the venting is always the best
way to deal with the issue, problem or pest.
It's a pleasure to enter this forum and see
the thoughts, put to paper especially for me
being new at this style of art if you will
it's not mountains we're climbing, but for most it's a hill. | |

And to see our songs posted just gives us a thrill
So we practice in showers and cars on our own
Cause our friends all look askance and unhappily moan
If we practice our prose and our delicate lines
Within hearing distance they threaten with fines
“No loitering here with your lame poetry!”
Too many times, that’s been shouted at me. | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 2:18:49 PM | Too many times, that’s been shouted at me
I just simply stare, and grin at them wickedly
Then say something more benign and bizzare
That they close their windows, travel fast away in their car
I continue on with squawking parrot in hand
We are in search of twisting and turning lands
He is my road travelling, comforting friend
It is my guess that this multi coloured, feathered creature, will be with me to the end....? | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 3:42:25 PM | you blinked and missed it again ... I guess this will be with me to the end....?
look at post 1083 then come back to me with your latest correct line
or from the other page ... "timed to breach my shutdown mind"
I'm finding this lame for a still fun game to be always to blame with reminds
me thinks you don't read other's lines ... just flash somthing past our bored minds
its kinda like when you go to the store
pull out your money and then wonder what you went there for
hmmmm.... maybe its a sign | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 3:53:20 PM | that no matter how hard one tries it shall not be erased
thank you dear thorb for keeping the pace
and bringing us back to a long missing place
Good thing these postings we do not erase!
“cause our nimble fingers and some with their toes
we’re all posting poems as the thread grows
we do need someone to help keep straight the line
so glad that you volunteered hmmmm.... maybe its a sign | |
|
| 8 LINE STANZAS bonanza
Posted: 2/7/2007 3:53:41 PM | maybe its a sign
maybe a lack of time
or could be just a dim wit
who really doesn't give a shit
in the big pic ,who really cares
even you misspell and let it remain there
its your words we all hold near and dear
not the critiques aimed at the oblivious here | |

not the critiques aimed at the oblivious here, carry on..........I'm just oblivious ....on the mend
from a fatal recovery of missed last line
I’ll have nightmares about missing lines left to dine
scattered through cyberspace not served with wine
or ordered by anyone to receive the fine
wording of stanzas that play to defend
All stitched together the poems we have penned. | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 4:06:47 PM | All stitched together the poems we have penned as the oblivious here and there
real do care though not about spelling or smelling the cheese on that grammar cracker
but stare too often at blank screens
thinking meaning is something they dream
leaning to the left while looking right
who really cares when sleeping at night
until that frightful sight starts you shaking
then its time for the rude awakening. | |
|
| 8 LINE STANZAS bonanza
Posted: 2/7/2007 6:47:22 PM | Then it's time for the rude awakening
of all things good and frightening
The bottom line is, when push comes to shove
It's this 8 Line Stanza that we love
It gives us the chance to recite
the words in our heads and just might
Make it easier when we lay down our heads
to fall asleep in our warm cozy beds. | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 6:51:31 PM | to fall asleep in our warm cozy beds
thinking about when I meet you after what we've said
talking on the phone for times to get to know
each other then meeting is like a whole nother show
plenty of fish and search and rescue
fate, venus and mars and all that has more to
do with anything else than i could muster
god is the best chess player that I know buster | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 6:58:45 PM | I know buster
hes a friend of Johns
that guy with the spectacles
who sings all those songs
A Beatle too I do believe
in that time of wonder and LSD
I still wander ,Its where I've been
playing those mind games and trying to Imagine | |

Posted: 2/7/2007 7:10:02 PM | Playing those mind games and trying to imagine
is getting confusing, and not sitting well in
my mind as you speak of your day of wonder
while the LSD is taking a plunder
I'm going to Busters' he's visiting John
to hear some good music or at least sing a song
of the beatles, yeah that's it, I'm heading there soon
and your welcome to join me Lyriclover at noon. | |

| 8 LINE STANZAS BANANA
Posted: 2/7/2007 7:14:32 PM | at noon ... trying to Imagine a world without pain
a world of pleasures with greedy gain
trying to imagine a world sans weapons
a would of truth without deception
trying to imagine a world without death
a world where everything catches your breath
trying to imagine a world with no rage
a world that's always on the same page | |
