Best Dangling Poems

What's a necktie 
dangling for?

     Too stiff, too thin 
     to be scarf, a bib 
     or an apron,

Too smooth to be 
a hankie,

     too short to be

       Dangling from each
              the poets
           their thoughts
      what no soul...

Some kind of Boccaccio 
they open The Book, 
borrowing thoughts 
and stories from muses,
for it is a tome 
in its entirety,

each muse, a Page, unamused,
to be plucked from tomb,
those sepia petals thrown up in the air, 
unravel, the yarns like confetti, 
land at the feet...

Ah, when men are men not mere fools
Then to be men means more than just
Dangling biological tools

Wise young women must hunt for clues
To find those few whom they may trust
Wise men who do not punt with fools 

Care and crave those family jewels,
But palm them...

Limerick crochet: Once a dangling Dude got himself tattooed

Once a dangling Dude got himself tattooed
All over to make himself look pretty good
Only piece tattoo free
Was the retracting pPp:
So he installed stainless steel under hood.

He met a woman with scarce a stain
On her svelte body smooth...

The prince loves his princess and their guillotine
It came at a handsome price but that’s alright 
Stars and moons are laid before her majesty 
Heads roll when she lifts her dainty finger
Of course a palace complete with moat and fleet of carriages 
Are added to...

I sit here thinking, no future can I truly see,

always you keep me at bay, so insecure and stubborn your ways,

my heart waits in dread, while you leave it dangling on a thread.

her child
she spanks
cigarette
dangling
baby 
turns away
she inflicts
real 
pain...

hello to the unknown pretender
goodbye to the overexposed defender
all my love to the taker, but never the resender

all the darkness has sharp edges
all the cavities have roadblocks for decoration
all the lesions have mercilessly given pledges
all the blackheads have blockaded all attempted restoration

i offer you flowers,...

A medallion moon adorns ebony skies

as it limpid light hangs

like a gleaming gold doubloon

dangling dreamlike

under a chandelier of sparkling stars.

I don't even know what happiness is, 
anymore.
Today, you broke my heart.
Even if we talk things out tonight,
what about tomorrow? 
You're so much like night and day,
who knows if we fix this....
How you're going to react, when 
the sun comes up again. 
You know how...

Alright, okay, enough is enough
It's supposed to be warm, what's with this stuff
Still wearing woolies
Protecting my goodies
Without 'em, icicles would be dangling from my butt...

Two calabashes of milk
loaded ready for pleasure
dangling as ripe paw paws
swollen as tortured frog
are within immediate reach
I ask for a pint to remove thirst
but she tells me in the face
“You have hard brown teeth
your stomach is for bones
this milk is for the toothless
and those with...

Dangling in Space

Finally need to get a few things straight
The longer we put off and have to wait
Right now is best time to do something
Put off and more loss and pain will bring.

In the here and now we should believe
Which will be best time for...
