Fuzzy Socks and Crocs: Hideous

Sand flows much too quickly in that goldarn hour glass I'm no spring chicken, but I'll have to take a pass If a guy thinks he rocks Wearing fuzzy socks and crocs That nerdy look is just too dorky for this lass I've had lots of men flirt with me throughout the years But one dressed like that and I'd be laughing with tears He'd make an impression And from my expression He'd be very embarrassed by guffawing jeers There's a rumor about Batman going around When he saw Robin wearing socks and crocs in town He swatted him with a "ZONK!" "Why are ya dressed like a punk?" "Take those hideous things off or you're going down!!" I've always admired a man who has self respect One who dresses with class and style, I'd not reject I'd call him a silver fox In well-shined shoes, he walks But in fuzzy socks and crocs, he'd look train wrecked! Guys, if you want a lady's provocative glance Invite her to dinner and then share a slow dance But remember that your shoes Will give her the helpful clues She requires to let your flirting lead to romance June 10th, 2021 Fuzzy Socks and Crocs Contest Sponsored by: Francine Roberts ***********************'

Such a clever, funny, imaginative write lampooning the stylish mis-step of crocs + fuzzy socks. Congratulations! Brian

Thanks very much, Jan. You're doing quite well with wins, so don't bother about an N/A. This was one of my last contest entries, so it's cool to go out with a winner.

Well written, Jenna. A pair of crocs and socks is definitely not me. At least not anymore lol. Justin.

There's a place for crocs but never with socks. Thanks for your thoughts, Justin.

Thanks, Jo. These are so addictive to write. I had to cut myself off from writing more.

I so do not like crocs Jenna, but to wear them with socks in public, should be outlawed, your cascade of Limericks, works so well, and Batman in tights beating up Robin in crocs, makes a lot of sense, all the best in the contest, cheers David
