The Itchy, Twitchy, Writer

Writer's Block, just blocked my thoughts again!

Scratched my scratchy head, with Itchy Pen.

But, no cure can cure a Writer's Rash!

Uninspired, sired "Inspiration Crash!"

Itchy Snitch

  There once was a snitch ditched in itchy pride,
sick of being tied, to grumpy cats side~
  she lured his furry tail,
  trapped him in a caged tale,
she sat, blowing kisses that were denied…

Itchy Fingers

Itchy Fingers?

I don’t mind dying in a nuclear war.
As long as it’s quick, not a lingering bore.
It’ll give the elite a chance to see the cloud.
Kill off the plebs in a crimson shroud.

I know their fingers are itching.
To press the oblivion button.
See what happens, 
from Moscow to Sutton.
and all the places in between,
They’ll watch it from their bunkers.
All the beautiful people I mean.
The psychopaths who own us
And control our pointless lives.
We the workers who feather their hives.

So, press it Musk, Trump, Putin and all else
Hidden in your bunkers focusing on self.

Obliterate the world. 
And the useless kind
You can do it to me.
I really don’t mind.

Itchy Bite

Itchy bite, oh itchy bite
Swollen up and hot and red
I didn’t hear the awful whine
That fills me up with dread

Itchy bite, I’m twitchy bite
How I wish you’d go away
I’m wide awake at two am
Scratching under my duvet

Itchy bite, you b*tchy bite
Now you’ve made me cuss
I’ll find you mozzie, at dawn light
And make you bite the dust

Itchy Feet

I have a bee in my bonnet
A fly up my nose
A flea in my ear
And tinnitus toes

I've just read the news,
In the paper today
It gave me the blues,
So I threw it away

I cannot comprehend
The news that I saw
When will we see the end
Of these treacherous wars

The people in Ukraine
They are bearing up well.
The degradation and pain
Suffering would be like a living hell.

The courage and fortitude
That these people have shown
It has made me feel ashamed
To have the audacity to moan.

Itchy Ring

Itchy Ring 

The isle-
you walked yourself  
Majestically, yes you did!

Smiled broadly
Veil-you removed
And declared¬----
 “She is all mine!” 

Today, 
“Pastor, it can’t work,
She is a wolf;
devouring me,
set me free!” 

“Son-
I saw it coming;
But I feared telling you the truth
Lest you, I lose.”

Itchy Bitsy Bug Bites Ouch-

Itchy bitsy ouch;
Bug bite Bee stings hornet nest;
Itchy scratchy pest;

~

So I fear those bees;
and mosquitoes and hornets;
With a scary mouths,
and rife stingers ticks and flies;
they do buzz, sting and bite I’m frightened;

Incredibly Itchy

a wasp jabs its sting
deep into my derriere
a butt load of itch...
too embarrassing to scratch
much too itchy to ignore

buzzing mosquitos
partial to my fast-food face
fly in for a bite...
landing ever so lightly
risking the chance of a slap

blackfly bites become
so incredibly itchy
my nails get worn down...
scratching bumps until they bleed
it is driving me crazy

A Red, Itchy Victim Speaks

A flock of large birds
or a fleet of small small planes
is speeding towards me.
NO! It's worse--mosquitoes!
I failed to use repellent!

I grab my swatter.
They slap it away, laughing--
my baseball bat too.
I’ll need a tub of itch cream,
maybe a transfusion.

The females descend
to feast on me; the males watch,*
rendering support
with cheering and clapping.
Next time I’ll use spray with DEET.


*Male mosquitoes do not bite living things; they can only consume sugary 
fluids and thus do not bite or suck the blood of humans or animals. This was news to me!

Yeah That Bit of Fur Was Itchy 2 Seconds Earlier Leave You Bore Me Now

Scratch
payback
for the clap
on the back
of the purring cat
as he pulls
the hand back

Scratching Itchy Wall's- -

So inviting of the scratchings on the wall
Hang gliding fingernails scraping you can hear the noise
Screeching and crunching
Cringing face smudging ears popping
Consciousness wondering when will it be stopping
Porous walls
Scratching itching claws

Itchy Itch

I have an itch that’s on my back
It’s sitting on a little patch
It’s in a place that’s hard to reach
So I can’t scratch this part of me
I have an itch I can’t ignore
This itch I have I want no more
I need someone to help me out
Give me a scratch or I will shout
You're almost there, just go up higher
Go to the left, that’s where it’s drier
Please take it down a little bit
That’s it right there you found my itch
Just like a dog with many fleas
You helped to put my itch at ease
At last, at last the itch is gone 
At last, at last, I can move on!

Itchy Skin It Had Been

Some Itchy Skin It Had Been

We had heard that his confusion,
Was contributed  to his delusion,
And itchy skin,
Again and again;
Could be contributed to contusion.

Itchy Back

Sure you've all had an itchy back
You ask a stranger to scratch it, you act like a maniac 
No... lower down you scream
Yeah, that's where I mean
You start purring and meowing like a pussycat

That Itchy Finger

Wow, it's a heat seeking missile
Always first to blow the whistle
Amazingly speedy on the draw
Faster than Quick Draw McGraw 

No poem has the chance to linger
Not with that itchy trigger finger

Hurry, hurry,  no time to wait
Gotta get out of the starting gate
But the first to cross the finish line
is always the winner, Einstein.
