Long Cads Poems

Paint paint paint away...
Paint away this day...
Paint to paint our taint is paint...
Paint away this day...

Keep that paint away from me!
Says that Skipper to his krewe...

Why oh Captain... Why our Captain...
Should we...

First there was oblivion, before emptiness began
Then everything grew from a (dot) and so forth into man
Using reverse extrapolation, large brains, and a plan 
Intelligent beings worked this out, as only they can

Logic itself explains...

Decided one Sunday afternoon to indulge in something I love!
Being "Olde School" with an "e" and a Cadillac classic car buff.
I went to this show and was blown away by all the "Cads" I...

...What room is there for merit in
a bubble that’s so ruled by fear?
Any who dares have principles
will be out of work in a year,
the industry is designed to
give only the servile cheers,
tell me, is that...

Emma Rutledge

1876-1914

Greetings my friends, 

From this forgotten frump,

This long-dead girl who now haunts

This yawning ghost garden here.

In life, my tongue tasted many terrible lies;

All just worthless words from men,

Men I’d just as soon see dead

While...

I was always the little guy, 
Picked on for my size, 
Pushed and prodded in the halls, 
Cowered to nothing by their calls, 

They threw rocks at me every day, 
So I would leave early...

To the North, South, East, and West...

Geniuses are lost in the jaunty jewels of rakish cads,

The hazard morsel palaver allot odium on idioms...

Rankle virulent mishmash wheeze addle chagrin jives,

Loosing a volley of expletives ordure waft...

Woe betide lower men who fickle facades embrace
And wit’s hard-won gold for shifting dross exchange; 
Dubbing avarice-sired glosses exquisite gems pure,
With obscuring eyes decimating solid worth's range.

With their own ears they cannot first-hand hear,
And gauge...

An evening of social justice
paid for by the “alleged” perpetrators
of the grand injustice.
What cads, these bastards
of the billions, usurpers of
our “common” wealth,
cream skimming purveyors
of the entrepreneurial spirit.

“They did not build it alone!”
No, they did not....

The Sweetheart Internet Scam

By Elton Camp

This scam has been around for a while
Roués and cads are giving it another trial

With a woman they get acquainted online
Gradually, they will tell her she’s so fine

They claim to...

Family Line

We each stand in one long line.
Back to Adam all Mankind.

The line is precious to our hearts;
Though it consists of many parts.

Country, race, and next of kin.
It is our future, and where we've been.

All...

A little bit tipsy
and a lot of flirty
makes for outrageous talk
and situations that create
impropriety,

Women want to remain above
reproach while having a good time,
They don't want to raise any red flags
or "tow the line",

Clouds of suspicion...

I, nondescript; Sis, beauty queen—
she won the crowns and wowed the guys.
Me? I was on the Quiz Bowl Team.

Some handsome guys befriended me.
They came to me for sound advice,
revealing...

May Day is Lei Day
Where Hawaiian flowers grow
May Day is Pay Day
In places that I know
May Day is Play Day
In places where I go
May Day is Weigh Day
For folks with vertigo
May Day is Clay Day

A scourge on subways is the guy
Whose legs are widely splayed
So those who want to sit won’t try – 
They’re shy or just afraid.

His manspread takes two seats at least
As if it is his right,
Though...

As a mother with no other, 
I stand alone but I am as soild as a stone.
With my children there is only love,
They were sent from above.
I thank God for them every day,
He is is...
