Whoever passed this law must of been high on marijuana.

To most an Alabama clown,
Heavy callipers weighed him down,
Local bullies put him to the test-
Innocence,then came off best,
A simple soul.....yet heaven blessed.

Now that this football season is o’er
And the Bulldogs are champions no more
Still give Kirby a raise
And let’s pray for the days
We’ll play ‘Bama and run up the score

Whose owner shipped him to Alabama

All points lookout ~ one llama in trauma

Pissed Off

That was a massive wild pig indeed,
by a young Alabama boy shot dead,
but he should have let it live instead.
I feel so embarrassed and offended -
the poor animal's name was Fred!


Must Admit About It

Must Admit About It

About Alabama many of us have to admit;
Half of them are not really worth any of it,
Real hot to trot,
Was really not;
More then could chew off Moore had bit.

Doug Jones Did Come Across

Doug Jones Came Across

While visiting Senate we came across,
Doug Jones from Alabama a new boss;
We were impressed,
With way he dressed;
Competitor impostor was a complete loss.

Black Titan

              Way down in Alabama 
              A mind for business 
              Shaking and shaping the South
              I am 'the' A. G. Gaston

Where I Live

Here football is a religion, "Bless your heart" is the motto, one of Lynard Skynards songs is practically a state anthem, and people panic and hurry to the grocery stores if they know a little snow is on its way.





Northern Alabama 10/3/16

Alabama Nights April 27, 2011

Can’t believe these eyes
And what they see
As only blackouts survive
Driving my rig into the northern Alabama night
A twisting hand reaching out of the demon skies
And ripping out the heart 
And giving back ruined lives 
(I know, I was there)

Premium Member Kiss My Grits

Oh, you don't like the things I have to say, well okay, just go ahead and kiss my grits!

Alabama native Polly Holliday portrayed Flo, a sassy waitress on the TV show "Alice," in the late 1970s. She coined the phrase "Kiss my grits!" ~Wikipedia

The Pebble

If you have a little rock in your shoe,
You will not cross Alabama, 
You will not cross Louisiana,
You’ll have to remove it first,

In poetry, it is the opposite,
If you have a small pebble in your shoe,
Do not remove it, think about it
Make it into a poem.

Beguiled About Child Defiled

Beguiled About Child Defiled

We definitely did know that he beguiled,
And had taken advantage of and defiled;
How absurd,
This occurred;
She was minor considered to be a child.

Premium Member Angry Rising Tide

One school shooting in Alabama
  And another in Louisiana

Here's a protest in the park
  That's gone on and on past dark

There's an angry rising tide 
  Demanding gun-violence to subside

Premium Member The Too Good Bad Boy

My Alabama visit
and first delicious kisses from
a preacher's son

Dashed dreams when
his sojourn to MY city
included not me

May 11, 2020
written before I realized nette's contest had to be based on a picture, and that inspired my poem about having too many rocks in my brain!

Alabama

What a place 2 be
So beautiful so majestic are thee
Flowers bloom in the meadows
Harvesters in the fields
Cows mooing in the pasture
As the sun shines over the hills

Country roads that lead to no where
Lil log cabins sitting there
Fog a dew cover the night air
Like a thin blanket hung up there

Premium Member State of Insanity

I’ve doodled and dawdled in Delaware,
Piddled in Pennsylvania without care,
I’ve been to New York and Alabama,
Michigan, Missouri and Montana. 
I’ve travelled in every state, my friend,
And I can tell you that, in the end,
If you lose your mind - see how it can be - 
The very best one is insanity.

Premium Member A Toucan In Alaska

A dog in Alabama
    a snake in Tennessee
  A toucan in Alaska
    a mule in Kentucky

  Texas has its longhorns
    Colorado its buffalo
  Arizonans look up at mountains
    Montanans attend rodeos

  Every place a different pet
    and scenes to stir the heart
  Give me wide-open countryside
    Give urbanites fine arts
