Long Blow me down Poems

Now I don't know if you've heard
Of the Baked Bean competition
Where contestants eat as much as can
In just twenty five minutes

Up they lined ready to start
To gobble up these dishes
Standing by were huge black pots

by Cate Rock

It hurts inside,
These bottled feelings
I just can't hide.
My beating heart a time bomb

I was hoping tonight, to be sexually molested

You know my faults and play them well,
Accompany me to planes of hell.

Longest time, you hide and watched,
Build me up then throw me off.
Debary thick, it...

The Sea Rover


Moving sideways or careening
All hands hoay and avast ye
Sea dogs and landlubbers go on pillaging
Jolly Roger is flapping guarded by cannon and artillery

Pistol, daggers, and doubloon among things inside the sea-chest

CENSORED: a kind of unfinished symphony


This hammer made my finger sting
The flaming, silly, soppy thing
Now I’ve hit my poor old thumb
Oh my giddy aunt, ho hum

Yer briny whore
akin to boar
wit' mangy hide 'n scurvy-pocked
chomped 'n chewed

wit' carnassial chompers as of croc

Be curs'd, yer nit

News spins around my head.
Killings, a brave puppy dog
saving a kitten,
rape & heroic deeds
done by cop and villain.
October surprises loom,
we are led by the nose
