The Selfish Artist,
Who Never Created,
Took A Bluff And
Called It The
TRUTH!

Good Enough.

Where I Live

Bluff purple mountains
Smothered
By cloudy gray shrouds
Grimly overlook
The busy anthill
That is humanity
In the valley below.

Christmas Fare - Well

Geese and Turkeys had good reason

To deplore the festive season

Since the farmer didn’t bluff

When he promised them good stuff

Conifers

Standing on this bluff,
Gazing past the conifers,
To sunset streaked clouds;
I number the days gone by
Since we last saw each other.

all bark, no trunk tree
wind howls from cruel blank sea
calls all in, bluffing
the emperor has no clothes
no child innocent remains

Premium Member Homework Blues

Math is tough.
It plays rough -
take's no guff,
calls your bluff,
grabs your scruff.
Had enough?
It clocks you,
knocks you
On your duff.

Ante

too late to ante
I already folded
your bluff is good
with the cards your holding
winner take all
and I pay the price
for sitting at the table

Winter's Night

I shall call the bluff of this icy winter’s night, 
Thwart her breath with my mother’s quilt,
And pray for the return of my lover as added measure.

Spewell Bluff a lovely place
Fishing, swimming, slower pace
River's bend with a mile view
A fun place for me and you
Georgia State Parks you come too

You build it up, to stand against wind
You layer it up, to withstand anything
You shelter you, to repel away my rain
You and a bluff, to bury me once again

Puff the Poker Princess

She didn’t play poker so well.
Her bluff was as clear as a bell.
   Her insides would quaver
   So much that they gave her
A hell of a smell of a tell.

There once was a swine loving Tory, 
who sought out election glory.
 but he was called on his bluff 
 and quit in a huff
and thus ends that Tory's story.

Trump is a big bluff
Do hate to be tough and gruff
Enough is enough.

After hearing Obama speaking
about Trump.

Tough Hood's winter face is a bluff
The snow folds like marshmallow fluff
We would call you soon
If you gamboled in June
But you bet you had the right stuff

dot to dot, the game dolts play,
ignoring the big picture.

blind man’s bluff.
the screen revelation,
at the late hour —

Smoke You Choke

You see them puff, of that they smoke
they think their tough, like a manly bloke

We’ve all had enough, of that we choke
so let’s not bluff, or we all will croak

He took an old sock and did stuff it
With a comedic voice he did bluff it
And need I here mention
The guy was Jim Henson
And the sock was his very first Muppet

Premium Member Blubber - Mar 8

Blaggard blaming the blond bloke for his blight:
Blablabla, bluster and bleat, blathering
Blob, your blue blood bleeds blotches on a black
Blossom. Blaspheme, blabber—I blast your bluff.
