Poem
~ Silly Lines~ My main line muse ran away on this sunny this day – My confuser got confused - rhythms upside down - My pen went dry – rhymes on strike - Thesaurus got away. Searched for foot lines on the face of a blue lined moon Then looked around for yards and yards of a water line; Ran a tag line at the park breaking through the line While my hash line ran away with a silver spoon. Drank some tasty lime punch line – my giggles burped - Found a copper penny lost, sitting on the red A-line - Crossed a plot line - story screamed - angry zip line Couldn’t find the frayed drag line – I got usurped! Went to a bar almost bought all the current date lines Hollow words of neck lines – what a bunch of air lines; Took the bus – had to duck – bruising my head line Tripped then fell - almost drown in the deep stream line. Gained some weight – oh, oh, no – belt line now a little snug; A little late –find myself running behind the time line; Invitation RSVP - dancing in the party line; Sporting polka-dots - a new inclined spot line - I shrug. I see police come to arrest some crooked lines Riding on the bee line with a honey of a ticket; A standing line almost faints sweating in the sun Doubts rise up - questions sneer - reservations of fine lines. My muse returned from her day, fainted on the spot, Had to duck while choruses of lines ran run-amuck; Told me all of this was just plain asinine Not too late to get it straight - back into line tatter tot. Fragile words shattered when dropping a line! 1-6-23 Contest: Poetry Marathon Mile 24 Sponsor: Mark Toney
