Best Trot Poems


Fox Trot
Though I'll tell you what you want to hear
I'm not a prophet or a seer
My lies tap dance upon your soul
As your Cinderella dreams unfold

******** woven to the letter
Assuring you there's no one better
Than me, to fulfill your need
Your virgin ears begin to bleed

One more...

Premium Member Trot Lines
4:00 AM time to check the trot-lines.
Catfish and turtles strung out deep in the muddy waters
We would string the lines from cypress trees across a channel
And mark them with fluorescent tape so we knew which ones were ours
In the early morning we would get up...

I find summer in your hair,
Your eyes emerald oceans
More vast than I could ever grasp.
And here I am handing you something to stir with
As I rumble with your every word.
You are silly, let's get that out of the way.
And yet you reign magnificent,
Like a queen...

Off You Trot
Skipping to and fro…then, pinned to the spot
What have I done to cause you so much pain?
You’re whispering like the sinuous wind…engraved with naught,
But unreliable shame and infinite sadness  

I feel the need to overcome the weight of this world 
Step aside and let...

She's the hottest girl I've ever had 

Wet head to toe and scantily clad

I felt flames of desire

But I put out her fire

That's what my Mom said about my Dad


Guess acorns don't fall far from the tree

She explained why when talking to me 

You're a...

A ninety nine nonsensical length of a trumpet voicing face facing west and east is a coastal cavity of dimensional spaces. It appears that even if a lobster puts on a hat or a crab puts...

Well they say look out he's
On the war path again

Trot Line Fishing
Back in East Texas where I grew up
Folks did a whole lot of fishing
I liked to fish using a trot line
If catfish is what I’m wishing

A trot line is a long line that’s strong 
Every few feet is a staging
The stagings all have hooks on...

Us guys are generally overweight... Asians are not
How come! What's their secret. What is their plot
A revolutionary new pill
Or the power of will
Whatever the reason, I'm extremely hot to trot...

Premium Member Thanksgiving Turkey Trot
Bertie the Turkey made a getaway 
And got down on his knees for thanks to say
Bertie knew that his fate
Was to be on a plate
Being gobbled up on Thanksgiving Day.

Bertie couldn’t get up on his legs again
He was old and his knees were causing pain
His...

Global Trot
I’m out of my mind but I am just perfect and just fine.
I went around the world and what a blast it was for me.
I’m sent with a message from a golden gate master key.
I shook I rattled and I rolled brand new maps I...

A new bride decided to cook
first time, but she trusted to luck.
Her spiced curry buns
gave hubby the runs;
next time, use a recipe book!...

Fox Trot After Dark
In debonair, burnt-orange, fur cloak
You trot your preened tail in front of the men folk
Nose pointed skyward prowling for a free dinner after dark
Your prickly ears snare every sensual bark
Squinty eyes reflect the sleekest of movements
With soft, silky prance; you parade your flossy accoutrements
Until spotting...

A Pernicious Trot
Springing with a boom zooming through the crowds,
Short rhythmic bursts of churning rage,
High octane rating strong gripping treads;
A two-wheel wonder of our sophisticated age.

Hard ridden machine crushing with pain,
Passing scenes with speeding cars,
Illusions veiled in the rattle of chains;
Super drain for thrust the three horsepower.

Deep...
