Best Legs Poems

Meg has two old battered beer keg legs
that don't look to hold much more than dregs. 
But when Greg comes along 
she begs; "Please, please, belong 
to me.  I still gotta lotta eggs.”

Aunt Ruthie used to sing and dance
a jolly way to find romance
she said one thing that you should know

“The legs are last to go”

Little Long-Legs

Running to me

           with big hugs
                 ...

When snakes had legs and love was free,
A man called Adam climbed a tree.
Although he knew the act was banned,
He plucked an apple with his hand.

In Eden you could always find,
Delicious fruits of every kind.
And everyone of them were free,
Except the apples on this tree.

You may not know
I have the worlds biggest toe
I also have a gigantic frown
The biggest frown ever seen around

I dropped a slimy creek stone and it went splat
And flattened my great toe quite painfully flat
You may ask what happened and how
Hurts so bad I can't...

Tent pegs, burnt legs
Sun cream, ice cream
Swimming trunks, squashed lunch
Peeling tum, after sun.

Dusty feet, collapsing seat
Folding table, electric cable,
Sleeping pods, fishing rods
Guide ropes foreign notes.

Ground sheet, birds tweet.
Wind break, tent shake
Top box  midnight fox
Sweeping floor, rubbish torn

Barbecue, dodgy loo,
Gritty toes, runny nose
Flip flops dirty...

Daddy comes everyday when the twilight
Bifurcates the light into shadows
Like a miscreant, grasshopper
Intrudes into the cracks of walls
Mom became a vociferous loudspeaker
Alcohol staggers inside his belly
Like the movement of snake.. 
He never came that day
Mamma's hand freezed with 
Wheat flour and dough
My rapacious belly was...

Things Grow Legs

Sometimes, I swear, things grow legs
Recipes, scissors, car keys in place
But when I look they move away
To floors, newspaper piles – hiding spaces.

We almost hear them laugh, or sneer, 
“Catch me if you can – over here.”  
Out of sight, out of...

Her legs, they’re long, they’re slim, they proudly stride, 
Owning the dark of the street,
And they both have pure, lines of hot, 
Exuding a sensual heat, 

They’re my poison, my drug, my toxic desire,
That I think of every day,
Devouring every thought of reasonableness, 
In a...

I am so called the eastern kingdom
who’s not exposed to the great waters
but guided by surrounding civil allies
and a onetime powerful authority
whose staff has been completely crushed
after the first global disaster
caused by a twin fatal provocation in Yugoslavia.
creating a stink in my past
resulting to over...

At some point, my legs begin to converse                
of time spent on the trail, rest now needed,             
For...

Wet and shiny coat,
Extremities shake and quake;
Newborn foal’s first stand....

I wanna feel the passion between your legs
I wanna taste the beauty so deep in you
Like a sheet spread on a bed, spread over me
Tangle our bodies and lock'em with the key thrown away 
Just you and me, not even Houdini could escape this.
I Love...

If
By Byron Juno

If women MUST die
Then Atieno would die first
If children were to forage
Then Atieno's would forage forever
If women were to walk necked 
Then Atieno's would walk throughout the year
If women were to trade their honeypot
Then Atieno's would donate hers
If women were after money not
Then...

The Daddy Long Legs crawled into my tea.
Looked up and smiled, coyly at me.
Invited his wife and his offspring, all three.
They were having the best time, I truly could see.

So I decided to make them a big bowl of tea.
I put in sugar and lemons,...
