Premium Member An Unusual Colonoscopy
I stepped in for my first colonoscopy. I was nervous everyone could see
I had a choice to be awake or put out if I was skittish...but no not me

I chose the former so I could watch my own ass on TV
They go right up your...

Premium Member Healthy Politics As Unusual
Creolization,
soars Dr. Jane Anna Gordon,
turns our co-empathic evolving democracy project
into a verbal,
active,
regenerative more,
degenerative less,
occasionally Elite-Pirates v NonElite-Prey revolution,
and even more unconsciously occasionally 
Elite/NonElite Creolizing-SelfReGenerative
crave to grave 
multicultural Earth experience.

What could all this Elite and NonElite political evolution and revolution
have to do with your self-optimizing, hopefully...

My Unusual Grandma
Grandma rode a pig one day,
Cause her horse had gone lame,
She rode it down the main street,
Horace was quite tame.
She had a rope around his neck,
Grandma pulled him to a stop,
With bonnet on and hessian bags 
She went into the shop.
Groceries bought, she returned
And placed...

The Unusual Ballad of Lily and Pierre
The Unusual Ballad of Lily and Pierre

Feline Lily strolled one day
and behold who did she see,
Pierre, the Tom cat of her dreams 
under a cherry tree.

She gazed at him, he winked at her
from that day it was their plight,
they were destined for each other
it was...

An Unusual New Year's Resolve
There once was a woman that was very fat!
Her diet resolves, I fear,
Broken each and every year.
Until she put something new under her hat –
It was her food; now, what do you think of that?

Cruel and Unusual Punishment
Loving you is cruel and unusual punishment.

When I met you, I should have started running to a tent.

I simply can't handle it. This  is cruel and unusual punishment.

You dropped the bomb on me and I cannot pick up the pieces.

Your love to me was...

An Unusual Experience
Wales to me is gloriously enchanting,
filled with history and nature's mystery.
Gifted by heavenly father,
the beauty of wales is unending just like it's rugged coastline.
Full of culture and tradition,
you will get the best crawl here I can say with conviction.
Majestic castles stand aloof,
presenting the Victorian history...

Cruel and Unusual Punishment
Cruel and Unusual Punishment 8th Amendment

Of particular news was a protrusion
Upsetting people with a serious infusion
About proportion of a pharmaceutical
Enough to raise and curl your cuticle
Cruel and unusual punishment create an exclusion.

This should be blocked and not allowed 
to exist in our society. According to
Code...

An Unusual Friend
AN UNUSUAL FRIEND

I was walking home from school one day,
And passed by an empty lot,
It was during the month of June,
And the day was pretty hot.

I looked to my right on the ground,
And I saw something unusual that was green,
It was a pretty amazing sight...

The Unusual Traveller
I am an animated spirit,
Living in time and space of unceasing transit
I have learnt to live in worlds of diverse odours and hues
An unusual traveller, a body of unique concepts and views.

I have dealt with figures of assorted cultures,
I have smelt the soil of distinct...

The Unusual Grandmother
Before morning would emerge
The infants stomach became large,
Usual infant's cry became scarce
Where is the mother 
Or father?
Tell them to surface.

Mother cried as she saw her babies face,
"Thou unusual thing, where from?
Bring me the broom
Mother needs the broom
In Africa, brooms
Cures gloom And doom.
Mother flogs the infant
Yet...

The Unusual Fragrance
The unusual fragrance looms above my room, 
Its owner not yet known, 
Its purpose still a mystery I assume 
Sweeter than any other fragrance I ever own, 

Its mood is ataraxia, 
Cold soothing scent, texture so smooth, 
Like dying in a peaceful euthanasia, 
I have...

^she_  had a love/hate relationship with food
she only fed with her eyes,
i was a sparkless firecracker 
and spoke English like i hated it.

not the least bit compatible
in any department 
at any hour on any menu
she wouldn't even drink the water.

I would slip through the...

A Monstrosity Of A Poem
What is this atrocity,
What is this uniquely unparalleled monstrosity,
What is this element with undefined velocity,
What is this singular, peerless challenger of viscosity!


What is this implement: almost an oddity,
What is this matter, a goofy comedy?
What is this contraption; is it a commodity?
What is this apparatus -...

He takes a sense of definite pride in being known
by this distinctive moniker, while always smiling!

When talking to groups of circus attendees, at once,
