The Lingo

Lawyers have a lingo
That’s like gibberish to me.
The same is true for those who have
A medical degree.

I guess with any specialty,
The lingo is unique
And understood by colleagues,
Yet to others sounds like Greek.

When language is exclusive,
It’s a pathway to connect
But to those without the lingo,
There’s the opposite effect.

         impress
   from mine boots
           sock
          pants
        ruuhnnn
           wait
         my hat

           POP

    she loves me
    she loves me
           not

NEW Cowboy Lingo From Yours Truly

You need to be a really good shooter if you catch your hat before it kisses the ground -- lest it be you.

Cowboys like to do things nice -- and -- fast because just doing it nice will come out a mess.

It's worth the run to do a Dallas spun around. (Fort Worth & Dallas Commerce Exchange)

Before the Bronc bell sounds off, tie-down real tight, lest you buck off headlong out of sight

If you shoot low, aim for the sun, and if you shoot high, at least you know where you going.

Cowboys never laugh, they're busy holstering their guns.

Dingo Lingo

There once was a man named Keith with perfect lingo
‘Till an unassuming stranger changed his name to Dingo
It blew my mind
It’s so unkind
To fabricate, that he’s an ape, with me she scores no bingo!

I followed the poet thought I was on her team               
The naked eye, it makes me cry, that which is unseen
She had me thinking
That he was stinking
Some poets call that feisty, but I call it really mean

Lingo

An Englishman, an Irishman, a Welshman and a Scot
Met up in a pub and I put them on the spot
I’m a language student, I’m in my final year
I thought I’d come to Britain and hone my syntax here
I told them I’d be very pleased to buy them all a beer
If they just sit and chatter while I sit somewhere near

Well as they talked I listened and I ordered sandwiches 
It seemed to me that they were talking different languages
So I am not much wiser except it seems I might
Have ten to twenty phrases with which to start a fight

Truck Drivers Lingo

Down the highway shes all lock up
Got a bear at my back door
Just dropped off in shady town
Heading down the big slab I-5
Need to get some go go juice
10-4 it was my travel agent
Just passed 32 yard stick with bull dog
He was skateboarding down the road
Drove over an alligator flipped over
My hundred mile coffee
Chicken Coop coming up
Turning on my chicken lights
Filling out my comic book
Two wheeler Evil Knievel parked on the side
Wipin her feet through the snow
Stay loaded go daddy go

" My Sons Truck"

Bingos Lingo

B-15
I-32
N-40
G-26
O-51

Bingo is an old persons lingo
They mingle and most are single
Some looking out the window
While some give you a finger if you win
They caller will signal a number
Then some bimbo will call out “Bingo”

That’s the lingo of Bingo

Twisted Lingo

TWISTED LINGI
Long time ago; the old day Africa
When black was the general color
A time when nobody was bilingual
Back when tradition was very pure...
We didn't have a Twisted Lingo

Then Alexander the great surfaced
Newton,Galileo and others made discoveries
The impact became intense,migration began
Survival for the fittest,mutation,intermarriage...colonization
Giving birth to Twisted Lingo

Gone to school but still don't understand some things.
Moon,tool,saloon,cool.took all the same 
But what happened to Blood?
I have never gotten it right
I guess this is a twisted Lingo

My teacher told me that Sour,flour,detour sounds like power at the end
But then I remembered Tour
Can someone make me understand
This is a twisted Lingo

Do I need to go back to school?
Who gave birth to language?
Why all these difference?
Where will I get reference?
How will I understand this Twisted Lingo?

Lingo

When young I loved the Motown sound
And the new lingo with it I found
When I said, "Hey man, "
"I'm a Motown fan"
My cousin said, "A beatnik's in town!"

Lingo - a - Frank - A

Inglish no be ma papa langwage
No be ma mama own self
God self sabi say de wahala tu mush

‘Intonashon’ tomoro. Hand hallmaity

Help ó Kwin Fiktora.
Na Small by small I go take learn how
To dey use nose dey talk
Under the sun wey dey mama person
For dis Naija wey we dey so;
Insted make my own blooder to dey
Henkorage me, na so so fail fail he dey
Fail me. He tire me oooo.

Lingo

We meet and greet
On the main street


We seize lingo
Play with bingo


Words we utter
Mind and matter


Seize words to stray
On umpteen ways


This and that way
Learn how to play


Sense thought profound
On common grounds


Leapfrog hot pyres
Get burnt by fire


Still we go on
Verge once upon


Seek to live well
On acts that tell


Sculpt a new day
From broken play


And then go round
More lost than found

Lingo

In basketball, there is a hoop
Through which an orange ball
When arcing, in a graceful loop,
May very likely fall.

A candidate, in quite a gaffe,
Mistakenly said “ring”
Instead of “hoop;” on his behalf,
Attention it did bring.

But notoriety is not
Considered as a plus
And lack of sporting lingo’s what
Makes him not one of us!

Way Back When Lingo

Way Back When Lingo!  (Slang from the 1970's) 

The '70's were way back when,
Once we were young,
the 70's had just begun...
There were hits that were around,
when we were all closer to the ground...

I was a dorky classroom teacher,
Like being a gross lay preacher,
For all the little chicks and dudes,
Who had to sit on it in primary school,
"Get real!" I'd say to them,
They answered back, "Ahem,
Up your nose with a rubber hose!"
When I'd asked them to write some prose.
They were in my face all day,
Can you dig it? Then they'd say,
"Dorky, don't chuck a spaz,
We're really not that bad.
Keep on truckin', Art is groovy!"
Didn't have a VCR for movies.
"Maths is sick!" they'd shriek,
"We're not perfect little geeks!'
"Awe, sooky sooky la la,"
I'd say, "Extra homework, ha ha ha!
Right on, looooking gooood..."
"Dream on, dorky, there's the bell!"
"Good night, John boys!" I'd yell.
"That's sick!" "Catch you tomorrow."
Hometime was no sorrow.
"Catch you on the flip side,"
As they ran outside,
"Don't go bananas at us!!!!"

Now we're old, why did I fuss?
Once we were all so young,
When the '70's had just begun.

Lingo

Orb of white light,
Heart sculpts affair;
Calm in dark night,
Opt for fresh air;
Note then the voice,
Touch of clear scent;
Enlist fond choice,
Mind sure intent;
Pray for kind peace,
Observe fine feel;
Rest in sure ease,
Ask for firm will;
Return with cheer,
Yield treasures here.

Shakespearian Lingo Love

“Would that my Ruby prevail upon my carnal intent with honest recourse and passion bring; oh that the warm fervour doth consume we both in loves lost embrace so we may sing”
