Best Chew The Fat Poems

The Elected

Sharks leave the water to campaign on land
Drink Champagne at political parties
Draw blood; circle around, troll for enemies 
Take contributions with a wink
Tease young girls, kiss babies, follow rules
To the point of razor sharp teeth
Follow schools of fish
Delicious to eat
Sharks don’t just swim. ...

Most people got married in June because
They took their yearly bath in May
Body odor was the reason
Of the flowers in a bouquet

A big tub of hot water was used
For a bath, so that's not complex 
The males's right was to go first
The women and children...

We talk, we rap, we connect, we chat
  To figure out where our heads are at
We discuss, we explain, criticize, clarify
  We ask a few questions: What, where and why

We argue, debate, yell, fight and contest
  We scratch and claw for the...

About

Now I’m retired, free of bosses
And fools and spinners of bull;
Now I’m retired and free:
“Working”… was being trapped in a
Spinning washing machine

Should I explain, or let you imagine?

Now I’m retired: targets have gone;
Together with days and “time”…
Time is now, today and “about”
And coffee

Now I’m retired...

Mama's Golden Pond Cried


Mama loved to chew 
off the Golden Pond
bone
chew the fat
of their autumn leaves, 
dressed in splendor,
a scenic lake and cabin,
her pseudo stage,
of her new found barbies,
smiling at her
smile they did
so minted the american dream,
their lives golden.
These.
These
pocketed keepsakes she kept
next to the chip
on...

Defined By Idioms

Naked truth, bent nails
dead men tell no tales
bad Apple, broken mirrors
burnt out light bulbs, crocodile tears
spilt milk, goose chase
two cents worth, rat race
rotten egg, bad to the bone
eagle eye, no place like home.
bat from hell,
pulled punch
big cheese, 
no free lunch
can of worms, bleeding...

The wonders of the Cell Phone
By Franklin Price
6/12/2016

The wonders of the cell phone,
If you can call it that,
Are miraculous and myriad
Not just there to chew the fat.

Can make a call, or text a friend,
Take a picture of a moose,
Play games, pay bills and find your...

The guests have come and gone, now back to the old routine.
We showed them all the tourists spots, partook of local cuisine,
Put many miles on the old sedan and spent a ton of dough!
Sure was nice to see them come - better yet to see...

I am not a cowboy, though I wear a cowboy hat
and the boots I wear have pointed toes and heels that ain’t near flat.
I want to be a cowboy, but I’m stopped by one condition
I just can’t get a handle on those cowboy definitions.

When you...

If you'll indulge me, this short poem, based on George Formby's WW2 forces song, was inspired by my son;'s experiences of backpacking in India over the past month. In that time he met ONE other traveler that wanted to just chew the fat, have a...

I don't wanna hear it,
you grinning Cheshire cat
Go wipe your dirty feet somewhere else
Spreading your gossip fact
with a web of lies and innuendo
Your eight eyes
love peeping into other people lives
through a cracked window
Weaving your idle chatter with frivolous conversation
Meaningless talk ... deceitful here say doth...

Mayhaps today we could have a  little chat
Just natter on a bit, ‘bout this and ‘bout that
Of nothing great nor of things grand
But what is common to the common man

Let’s not try to impress, but just simply address
Minor matters that could not matter less
A...
