A Little Alliteration

A little alliteration by a long shot speaks so loud.
Metaphors muddle my mind
And silly similes stymie the sentence.
A terrible trope takes too much of my time
g Tiberius is my tag and title
My nom de plume is a personal platitude personified
Better *****es badger me with their bared bosoms
A curious cacophony controls my cochlea
Demanding drugs and daffodils
Eventually ephemeral earth will evince my effervescence
Freakin' phantom fear will  appear
Had enough, Harry?
Or do you just ejaculate jocularity?
O K - I'll specially spare you the shroud of St. Sebastien 
And  say Adios, amigo; ta ta to you, see ya, Zebra; good-by, sweety-pie
So long saintly Samuel, take care, Virginia Dare
And that's the way it is, my miz
Amen and au-revoire.

A little alliteration you say..... how about a double dose of licking the kitten. Gripping griping grinding grin. Silver Skitty Skat Skin

Oh wow - so many bad puns going thru my head I don't know which one to pick first. hmmmmmm. O K - licking the pussy - that's what you meant, wasn't it? How very banal and gauche - I mean , that went out with prohibition didn't it? And the silver shitty skinny kat. Eb'body moofed on to s and m and such, or didn't you get the memo? LLP, my dear - cain't wait for your next transmission.
