Best Slippery Poems
A Slippery DayWinter descended upon the prairie plain
Pelting the ground with freezing rain
Nipping, biting this cold morning air
Thin layers of ice coated everywhere
You get out on the road but don't step on the brake
That would be your biggest mistake
For it would make you slide and spin
This would...

Slippery SlopperyA slippery sloppery slipping snail
Slithered slimed and slid on the floor
Feeling hurried harried hungry and helpless
As starlings screeched spiraled and saw
That slippery sloppery slipping snail
Who slithered slimed and slid on the floor
A fluttering of feathers fell frighteningly fast
Meant that slippery sloppery slipping snail
Who slithered slimed...

Slippery Sam the SerpentSlippery Sam the serpent sang songs.
About sexy slitherers in thongs.
The tunes were quite crass.
Cause thongs up their ... .
Let's face it, that just never belongs.
My apologies for being smutty. I think my mind is rotting....

Slippery When WetSLIPPERY WHEN WET
Like The Bermuda Triangle trips, with disappearing blips,
my heart stops beating, is fleeting, or else is gone.
No Black Hole deeper, steeper, my heart is not a keeper,
of the light sucked in by stellar wind, and played the pawn.
A Double Slit Experiment, arranged...

An indigent man from Calcutta
Would bathe once a week in some butter
A slippery mistake
He walked over a grate
And forever was lost down the gutter...

Slippery Wet FishThere MUST be a reason for life to exist
To explain why we're thrilled by a passionate kiss
From our opposite sex
Or one from our ex
Or even one from a slippery wet fish...

Slippery HopeCoz we're like two writers afraid of papers
Two singers with stage scares
Or maybe I am the mouth of the dog
If you're my tail
Around and round
I chase you to ground
And perhaps you're Shakespeare nervous of criticisms
And Poseidon's heir
With fear to sail
If love's enough and everything
Why can't...

Blasted Bones Slippery Soulshorny toad
thorny road
download music
for lively bones
nobody knows
break glass with plastic stone
open toe broken phone
day old newborn soul
crusty milk bowls
itty-bitty silk flows
dabble with graffiti
on the city down low
grime gritty cold windy city
crime filthy bold chicago
exit on the intro
enter on the outro
dressed in the apparel
of a mighty...

Sloppy, Slippery Rock(Parody of Hickory Dickory Dock)
Sloppy, slippery rock
The boy ran up the rock.
The rock shook once.
The boy ran down.
Sloppy, slippery rock
Sloppy, slippery rock
The boy ran up the rock.
The rock shook twice.
The boy ran down.
Sloppy, slippery rock
Sloppy, slippery rock
The boy ran up the rock.
The rock shook thrice.

Epigram
SnowflakesSnowflakes float
Whimsically on the wind
Drift
Soar
Fall
Gentle merging of
Terrestrial elements
Seeking
Cosmic order of
Patterned perfection
Children frolic with Frosty
Making snowmen and
Snow angels
Snowflakes melt
Swept aside by
Busy wipers on
Sliding cars on
Slippery roads
With dizzy drivers
Seeking stars and
Sparkling moonbeams
On lonely roads
In lonely lives
Where snowflakes fall...

The Stepping StonesThe bridge lay broken across the brook
perplexed, the traveler, long he stood
look at it as a stumbling block
the minute hand ticking in the clock
to find a way out of the tangle
decide to make a short ramble
to find whether he can step on stones
should be near...
