Premium Member Teething Troubles - Scared Witless - Warning Contains Humour
The dentist’s poised wearing his gown
I’m anxious, my face wears a frown
He’ll pull out my tooth
(Assisted by Ruth)
I’m thankful my panties are brown!

He powered up his dental drill
The noise from it made me feel ill
Bad tooth he requires
He’ll pull it with pliers
Then present me with...

O Witless Quill
"O Witless Quill"




O witless quill
sharply dipped in smiles leering
joust they your words
on their egos competing
galloping black stallions, see them fall
shiny armour felled knights
and petulant proud Queens now all shiny amour, in their saddles riding

Merry rogers
Merry rogers

Darkness to Light schemes

O witless quill
sharp and sweet the pain,...

Survival of the Witless
SURVIVAL OF THE WITLESS
		— James Ph. Kotsybar

When fire, water, earth and air were thought
to be the elementals that composed
all matter, folks did not become distraught
at what avant-garde chemists then proposed.

Most understand that our world is a sphere
(with only one natural satellite);
no matter where folks sail...

Witless Willy Speaks
Witless Willy Speaks

Perhaps I’ll join a monastery
Or just dog paddle out to sea
By the neck a swinging free
But I don’t really want to

Perhaps I’ll get upon her goat
Perhaps I’ll swim the plurry moat
But canna find the bloody boat
So I don’t really wanna

Perchance perforce 
I’m kicked...

Witless
Their clueless inane fangs of reed 
Strive to bite what's made of steel; 
Deriding the stronger sinew of virtue
They cling onto feeble foibles untrue.

To headache more reasonable head
Is the very principal aim they're bred...
These pithy bothersome numbskulls 
Coined with dimmest grasp that lulls.

Premium Member Sirens
Several sirens singing on the shore
Called Calypso’s crew for them to adore.
Willing witless wanderers;
Oblivious obeyers, 
Which waves washed through a rocky tidal bore.

Svelte sisters sieved the sailor’s gore
That the salty surging sea cast ashore.
Boiling briny blunderers
With olive oil and oysters
And feasting until they could eat...
