I can put things together
Sometimes I'm on what you wear
Sometimes on things
Sometimes I get stuck and you get mad at me
Its not often for me to break 
I'm made out of metal










I'm a zipper...

BEYOND YOUR END
Look deep into yourself my friend,
if then, you need to look to me, 
and deep enough to see the end,
beyond your end is where I'll be.

Into the love someday you'll see,
becoming all the things you'll know,
before your very eyes, I'll be
already where you...

Premium Member Leave It To Beaver: the Last Episode
Beaverish, feverish
hot Mrs. Cleaver wished
that her affair had not
given her clap. 

Fast Eddie Haskell, her
boy-toy, that rascal, his 
transmissibility
claims were all crap.

“Tickle me, pickle me,
say it’s not true, for if
you have the clap then I
must have it too!”

Doctors prescribed her some
anti-microbials,
Ward soon found out that...

The Ancient Mariner’s Fate
 
Eternally doomed adrift
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The Mariner repeats his 
Story over and over now.

A sad soul in true agony
Incomprehensible
His heart now dry as dust
To his fate he must bow.

Dickensian Dactyl
Squickleby Pickleby
Nicholas Nickleby
loses his Father and
feels quite forlorn.

Ralph his tight uncle a
disciplinarian
mean to the marrow
regards him with scorn.

Nicholas, penniless
uncompromisingly
works as a master where
boys take the flack.

Nickleby fears for the 
safety of orphans there
rescues a cripple and
never looks back.

Granted this ending is
unsatisfactory
Dickens had plenty more
meat to...

Basketball Limerick
A basket ball player with bounce
Said, “All my opponents I'll trounce.”
But thanks to a gale
He fell on his tail,
And off in a huff he'd to flounce!...

A big baseball player on pitch
Developed a strange kind of itch:
The ball flew up straight
Then down on his pate,
So he blamed the whole thing on a witch!...

Loneliness
Have you been in love?
Have you shared a kiss?
Have you ever got a hug?
Have you ever gone thru all of 
this?

I have not, nor ever been.
I have lost time and miss,
I have bitterness inside of 
me, 
I have nothing and noone to 
be with!
