Vogon Poetry Poetry Contest by Sotto Poet (placed but did not place)

Resubmitted for reconsideration to Rob Carmack's Screwed XXI Poetry Contest.

poem written on 1/18/2025

 

Here, at The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, 

Poetrysoup is on the menu! 

And to save our sacred website, perhaps the world ...

We must entertain and enter vague conspicuous contests 
With a true Vogon vocabulary intent on an unworthy saving ... 
Or suffer the consequences of eternal annihilation
Perhaps even infinite damnation of one's soul
Through the suffering con consternation of constipation 
Sufphfphfpherrrring sassafras spewing smack! 
Suckin’ on crack, smack, crackling ass. 
Hacking in, ack, phlack, intergalactic gack! 
Snack on mo’ smack, mo’ splendiferous crack 
Are you listening in? You Peeping Toms of Vogsphere 
Ga head, sit next to me, if you please and please do 
Ahhhhchoo! ‘Scuse me as I sneeze slobbering goo on you 
N feel like pee pee peeing on your too too and DON’T! 
Don’t you dare say I was born in a zoo. 
A zoological biological infestation of poo 
Yeah you! You piece of pestilent phluck! 
Listen carefully, you meticulous muck muck 
Monstrous manhandling mush mush for brains 
Let it rain my rogue ramblings of the vulgar 
I gotta bone pickin’ poem to pick with y’all, 
With y’all you yucks! Who say yuck yuck yuck 
Like it was some masterful grace of critique of good luck 
Like the Word is the Sword, our words are like bullets 
Shooting squirming screaming squashing lead into gullets 
Exfoliating poets forcing their views onto you 
The World-Wide Whacky Web can go dark 
With worms who pretend to be humans 
Exasperating, masquerading  
Expressing themselves, exposing themselves 
Like extraterresticles with tentacles teasing  
Brain stems steaming in a boiling pot of coffee 
Melting in a muddy cesspool pfft of humanity 
Puking, phew, phonetically correct 
Can you con consciously connect with this 
This gibbering gibberous spew of goo poo 
Chunks o’ calcariferous unconscienced clues 
Inflicting this barf into poor daft ears, year after year, 
Over the hills, passed numerous black holes, 
Got over my fears of frolicking fibbing  
Blabbering blubbering, that obviously annoying disorder  
Of nerve ending never ending  
Hypochondriacal hopelessness of humanity’s 
Hubris to keep flicking Vogon vanity back and forth at thee 
With all my human inadequacies and quirky quarky qualities 
I hit the bong, bon bon bon voyage 
Boing! On and on ...  and on ... and on .... I go 

                                          I’m groin going growing going

                                                                                          ... gone.
