This heat’s got people irritable,
don’t come at me miserable.
A bitter tantrum’s begun,
I’m just here to have fun.
Your behavior’s incorrigible.
My tongue takes me places I do not want to go.
Gets me into trouble up and down, to and fro.
I bite her sometimes to make her slow.
She wiggles and makes me let her go
Then these words come out a giant show
People are stunned at the immense word flow
As I sit too angry to talk, daring to not let her go.
Incorrigible is not able to be corrected,
improved, or reformed.
Deplorable deserves strong condemnation
and shockingly bad in quality.
Excoriable is to censure or criticize severely
or damage or remove part of the surface
Incorrigible and Deplorable
Not only were they determined to be deplorable,
They were also of poor behavior and incorrigible;
Vocabulary poor,
And a real bore;
Enjoyed criticizing others while being excoriable.
This is a real challenge. Take three outlandish
words that rhyme and combine them together
into a poem or limerick.

The Incorrigible Gods
Thunder Rain Storm Earthquake Tsunami
We the Gods are angry with mankind!
Noah, build an arc and save the species!
Oh Gods why destroy if to be built again?
We want to see your will power and creativity
Bored are we of the same routine.
Attack Fire Shoot Blast Blow Up
We the Gods are angry with your peace!
Jesus Mohammed Buddha Krishna Nanak go!
Oh Gods was it necessary to wipe out civilisations?
Spread peace teach the world to sacrifice and love
We want more firebrands more fire in souls for salvation
Poverty Grief Illness Homeless Abandoned
We the Gods are restless if we are inactive!
Mother Teresa Bhagat Puran Singh serve!
Oh Gods why create such situations in the first place?
You make and break, create and destroy. Manufacturing defect?
Please upgrade your software before we all go crazy!

Contest: The Gods Must Be Crazy
Sponsor: John Lawless
His name fills us with fright;
We won't forget his crime;
We can't forgive him this time;
We distrust him day and night.
We view him with disgust
We hold him in contempt
He did something unjust.
He quartered a bee.
Incorrigible sinner!
His hunger does not move us;
May his body grow thinner!
He quartered a bee.
What this man did is not fair;
This libidinous blackguard
deserves the electric chair.
He quartered a bee.
Childish, menefreghista,
and conceited. It irks us
that such a maggot exists.
He quartered a bee.
We well knew: If he carvest
a bee, he will not be free.
He could've been smartest.
He quartered a bee.
He's not the person you want to be.
He quartered a bee.
Maybe he fall down and go boom or;
Maybe computer messed up;
Or maybe it was him.
But the show went on evidently.
Lots of people indirectly claiming to be the “one and only”
But hey he makes espresso you know.
He was somewhere else for a while and;
Glad he got out before the s**t splattered all over the screen;
No one’s going to like this but that’s because Mr. Man probably;
Told most of them what they’re not supposed to pay attention to;
But no worries though he finds it encouraging to be different;
And hey there’s splatter and excrement that’s funny right?
So what the hell people;
When everything is said and done.
Even red light green light;
Has its place.
So keep on playing and;
Peace and love to all.
Need to acknowledge you,
to grasp your lovely brittle self.
Somehow..
doesn’t really matter by what means.
Just GET THE **** BACK INTO MY LIFE.
Logging for your inner alternate sanity.
