All Man Well Almost

My suntan comes from a bottle
My hair from a wig maker in Peru
My legs are very hairy
I have to put my teeth in to chew
I have had plastic surgery
And a nip and tuck
And I'm soon to have my nose done
With a bit of luck
My lips are bigger than Mick Jagger's
And I have that wind tunnel look
And I'm quite a catch by anybodies book


But I'm all man
Well almost
But I do what I can
I do have a six pack
But keep it in the cooler
Yes I'm quite a man
I measured it with a ruler.

So come on ladies grab me while you can
When I've got my teeth in and wig up on my head
They say I look like George Clooney
But then I look in the mirror
And I think they meant Mickey Rooney.

Ar well can't have everything
But my heart is loving and true
I may not be organic no more
With all the plastic surgery
But there's much more than that to me.

You really had me laughing out loud, Peter. Ironically, I wrote a poem about a wig and false teeth yesterday, but haven't posted it yet. The measuring stick and "Mickey Rooney" had me rolling. What fun it would be to co-write with you! We could do it for Karen. Thanks for the great laughs. I have to make sure you're in my fave poets list. Love, Carolyn

Andrea. I wouldn't have thought that myself. I was born a cursed romantic. I need more, than a fling like you.I need to feel. Judging by your picture that shhhh! I fancy like mad. you are a beautiful girl.Iv'e met many women, who didn't know what they wanted. I just wish things had turned out etter for you. but then you wouldn't have met your hubby. thank you. Pete.

ahaha, I LOVE it, this is MY kind of poem, Peter!!! I left you a note at my turtle poem, but in case you dont' see it, thanks for what you said. One guy I think misread what I was trying to say. I was never one of those nymphomania kind of girls. quite the opposite! I was just crazy romantic and could not understand why the guy thought I was not right for him!
