Violette Contest - Odd Thoughts

hear the happy skittle 
knows he isn't brittle
laughs at flying spittal 
from the vicars

see the sullen dancer
living fearing cancer
seldom wants an answer
always bickers

smell the Christmas fairy
legs and arms so hairy
makes me rather wary
nostril pickers

man who's always smiling
messing up the tiling
says he's done the filing
wearing knickers

thinks he's Jack the Ripper
breaks another zipper
eats a mouldy kipper
pounding tickers

LOL, pure nonsense but wanted to try this interesting form

written 31st March
for Mick's Violette contest

I love it, especially the Xmas fairy and vicars. Congrats. That was a fun form, wasn't it? The difficulty was coming up with feminine rhymes.

Has good flow and a lot of nonsense or is it? Reads like a good contender. Way to go. Sara...
