Terry Flood Poet Rhyme

Just Write

The challenge... to write a whole load of sh*te
No sense and no meaning, no thought waves to fight
Don’t think it, don’t plan it, don’t jot down a draft
Don’t worry that what you write might turn out daft...

Well, me and a teddy had been going steady
And when she was ready she yelled Gee up Neddy
That bear didn’t care, that we were a pair
Although she was there wearing no underwear

A fellow called Keith slipped her a leaf
To cover her tummy and what lay beneath
She growled that’s not funny, then choked on her honey
I hope I inherit all of her money

So this might be sh*tty, it may not be gritty
And if you don’t like it, well, that’s just a pity
For, yes, I have written some garbage for you
But that’s what the sponsor has told me to do

John Lawless January 5, 2021 at 4:47 PM Didn't exactly ask for a load of garbage but I did find this a very interesting take on the contest theme. I had a few chuckles while reading it. thanks for participating in the contest...i think.... Terry Flood January 6, 2021 at 3:41 AM Honestly, no offence meant. Simply wrote in one straight draft. The only concession I allowed myself was changing the bear to female. Glad you had a chuckle... you might gather I wasn’t taking myself too seriously. Thanks for not banning me for life. ;)
