Notes About The Poem
lyrical limmericky Nonsense - silliness.

Asinine

Asinine 
The Poem 

Spit and glue
Tape on glasses
Lace on wrinkled rumps 
Lipstick on lizards
Ants in bee-hives
Parties in the cemeteries
Toothfairy bank robbers
Dunces in libraries.

Rhymes on caution signs
Large Letters for the deaf 
and hearing aids for the blind-
          Asinine.
I think, to see a cripple crabs with crutches,
bow-legged spiders with a pigeon toe-ed cat.
Or a knock-knee-ed rabbit- with a Multi-Colored Bat 

Apes eating hor devours
Amish wearing Hats no-more

Imagine the scenic scene 
That we would see-
If the Sky replaced the sea- 

Spit and Glue will never do-Spit 
won't do, when you need glue.

Dressed to kill with taped up glasses,Lace on strippers
with wrinkled rumps 
It's a crazy poem but I really feel
You should never read rhymes on  caution signs.


CAUTION

Look up here
have no fear – 
There have been 
twenty-six 
accidents right here- 
When you slow up 
to read this rhyme
you may get hit 
from behind
cross the white 
line and smash 
over the medium

Dear Vicki I love your poem . It resembles like my style. "If the sky replaced the sea", wonderful. This is the fun and thought to read poem. "Caution" is very interesting.
