Call Me Slip Shod
Call me careless, slip shod if you dare
I throw myself onto a wet slip and slide without a care.
I am slipping, dipping, and dripping, on a slip slappy day.
A slipped disc? No worries. Cowslip meds are on their way.
Cinderella’s slipper has formed in the east next to a bright star.
I put on my frilly lace slip, and dance along with a hardy har har.
Take me to a boat slip and break out the ginger ale.
I kick on my slip and -ons and dance a jig in this gale.
Word play is slippery, but glittery, glitzy fun too.
I toss down ideas, they come out of the blue.
Call me careless, slip shod if you dare.
I toss the words down; how they land I don’t care.
