On We Go, Ennui, No

A world full of syllables
Is so highly tillable;
they ebulliently buoy,
never leading to ennui.

When you’ve got Hong Kong Phooey
with a bowl of chop suey
and a glass of Drambuie,
what else do you need?

Or a wolf man named Gershon
with a camo tutu on
and he’s traipsing ‘cross your lawn,
asking more is just greed.

Good thing I 'upsized' to that 'camo tutu' with the 'stre-e-e-e-tch' waistband. lol... Thanks for the tip of the hat, Jeff, and for all of your support... In my opinion, I'm the one who should be writing about your inexhaustible treasure chest of creativity!! Bravo, Poet! ~ Gershon
