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 equivalent of a cosmic flat tire, the star collector overheated again. Should've topped off the subzero heat transmogger back at Stuckey's. Yep we have 'em too.., who doesn't need a Pecan Log Roll, now and then. Two Roadway startruckers snapped up the last Elmer's paste pies., the luckys. Right between filling stations to boot, no triple...

Our tribute to the eighteen year old boys who were sent to Viet Nam Was to be chill, chillin, and chillax’in as a tribute to those soon gone. We were groov’n, and groovy, beatnik style, but we called ourselves hippie. We were funky, groovy, and pretty nifty, copacetic, stoked, and thrifty. Wearing our hip hugger bellbottoms, our...

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...

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...

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!...
