Lycia Harding Poet Monorhyme

I Like My Body

I like my body when it's with your clothes.
With your skirts and with your hose.
Panties, bras and stilettos -
you must let me BORROW those!
Oooh, they're tight... I don't suppose
you've got these in open toes...?

Eric Boddie August 5, 2015 at 12:04 PM this is just too cute, but I don't wear those....but you would look nice in just my tee shirt I suppose....lol Eric Boddie August 10, 2015 at 7:52 PM just for saying that, you will get my very next tribute....lol....that was a good one....;) Lycia Harding August 5, 2015 at 2:42 PM I'm thinkin bout changing the title of this poem to, "I Like My Boddie" Lycia Harding August 5, 2015 at 2:41 PM If it's clean and no stain shows, give it here, I'll strike a pose. If it's not, the same thing goes, I'll just have to hold my nose. Hahaha! Funny

Andrea Dietrich July 26, 2015 at 9:58 PM hahahaha. I was thinking you were putting yourself into a man's persona because of line two and then realized you were just talking to another woman. Oh wait, you ARE being a man, a drag queen!!! this is really really good!!! Lycia Harding July 26, 2015 at 11:31 PM Haha! Yes, you GOT it! The reference line I chose for this contest is from an E.E. Cummings poem that's written to a woman from a man's pov so I thought I'd keep that original perspective and add a silly little twist on the end. I'm glad you like it, I really enjoy writing with humor but under certain poetic parameters I think it sometimes tends to get lost in translation. Thanks, Andrea! xoxo
