Best Flibbertigibbet Poems


Flibbertigibbet

In the spirit of dire news
he's holed his old souls!
Walking so hard and so long
through the coals.

But you cannot master fire
without mastering the wind;
a kink in the fate
of he who has sinned,
but does not believe
in the trouble he is in—
Coveting the secrets of sin
in his grin....

I sneer at the doctrine instilled therein.

Death to the messenger
Sends a message 
Back to the sender.

I suppose I shall borrow his tongue for my blender.

Flibbertigibbet
a Limerick
By: Miracle Man
12-17-2019

She was flibbertigibbet or a female fool,
She used her men like they were her tool.
A heart like a stone,
She wound up alone,
And no longer does she resemble a jewel.

The Flibbertigibbet

The Flibbertigibbet


Such a ludicrous name, unto you may never have been heard;
But The Flibbertigibbet Demon, lives in the land of words.
They hide there in The Thesaurus, in front of our eyes;
Like The Devils spies in paradise.


The bookworm with tapeworm, failed to see The Flibbertigibbet.
But then one day The Bookworm, just happened to come across it.
It stood out from the rest, because it didn’t sound human;
Then I read the description and it simply said Demon.


The demonic disguise, lead to the corruption of the mind.
It is now forever entwined, with the Flibbertigibbet inside.

Please Quietly Build Me a Flibbertigibbet

(alternately titled:
this stoned temple pilot ready for Styx)

I hate tubby a nuisance
     boot ma checking account...
suffered a major hit strafed
     with a shock king
     (difficult to absorb) 'bout
mid morning today August fourteenth,
     tooth how sand eighteen
     and got rushed with clout

to the nearest emergency triage facility,
     the doctors (all
     named Piggy Penny Banks)
     shook their head with doubt
prognosis for recovery requires more'n
     just a dime a dozen,
     (or quarter back) appeal,
hence my plea for posting,

     this helter skelter heroic measure
     summarily and in fact
     donate myself (earning Purple Heart
     as a non veteran)
     bone a (er) fide done deal
yea, aye even forgo thine
     cock a doodle doo lil pecker,
     which minimally doth 
     newt rue, stir, nor ring

     atrophied house broken
     barely visible prick tis docile, and
     (like a game cock)
     willy nilly able
     at a moe mince notice
     dir wreck lee (stand stiff)
     head over heal
no...no..no, though

     strut that eye feel rendered poverty stricken,
     a sudden dark mood
     finds me less eager tubby alive
asper thine primary (albeit only)
     checking account poorly
     weathered a kamikaze nose dive
with the plight of pennilessness
     unexpectedly looming...

     (parental advisory) breaking news at five,
when motley crews auto be buzzing
     like a b52 sized bee hive
ah...mine posthumous fame,
     and fortune posse sub bully
     as palliative relieving
     grave gallows humor
     small consolation, whereat
     I cannot fathom to facebook,
     snapchat, nor do the shutterfly jive!

Flibbertigibbet



It's a good question; whom we can call it; possibly
a person who is irresponsible, constantly
talks too much, a flighty
scatterbrained psyche;
It's a slang term, for a person who is gossipy.
