Figured It Out

You're a metaphor
      Unfamiliar, expressing 
               Familiarity!

Money Isnt Joy

there once was a little poor boy
who hadn't a single toy
he had figured it out
and to the world he'd shout
money isn't the way to joy

Eternity

I never figured on
the
stillness of here

the
distance from there
to fresh despair

maybe that’s
what He

by
    hell

Key

He believed he had the key
To my heart and also me
He figured it wrong
Thought my feelings were strong
He lost himself and also me

Georgian Country

this is a woman land
round and curved
all breast, hip and thigh
a Rubens reclining nude
strong, full figured and fertile.

Premium Member Handy Andy

Handy Andy, fine figured and dandy
Asked his mother for a piece of candy
She gave him some gum
But she came undone
When he chomped it like their milk cow Mandy

Thanks Mom

I figured out how to talk
I figured out how to walk
I figured out how to read
I figured out how to lead
But none would've been done
Without my mom

Ricardo's and Mertz's

Lucy and Ricky, Ethel and Fred.
Could'nt agree on what wasn't said.
The girls figured it out.
The boy's, they would just shout.
And now no one knows, now that they're dead.

Moving Day

I jotted the number down with a pen
called and set the date of time and when
two men and a truck
finally showed up
outside my door stood two stick figured men

Flesh

• Fresh meat • Who can resist? • I never figured a love for this can exist • It's tangy flavor • It's smooth exterior • I personally find human meat superior

Twin Rocks

Oh magnificent rock towers/Over me up above/Past the sky and beyond/God is not even here/Figured he couldn't make it/This majestic rock stops all/Precedes what was before/Exceeds what will be...

Premium Member Halfway There

Told my girlfriend ‘I’m halfway there’
   She figured I was thirty-five…

After she’d done up and married me
   I told her I’ve one foot in the grave
                           ~ yet still alive

Finish Me Off

Now that I hit the floor.
Finish me off.
I'm broken inside and out.
I'm useless and all un figured out.
No use for me know.
Now that I hit the floor.
Finish me off.
Now that I am nothing more.

Premium Member She Outgrew Her Life

She outgrew her clothes
She outgrew her husband
She outgrew her children
She outgrew her life

She was on a new track
But not the right one
She figured it out too late
None of them wanted her back.

Poo Poo Platter

Five dogs in a yard is a tight fit
when you’re bending over to scoop it
the gag reflex triggered
much sooner than figured
thus adding a lunch to the poo pit

Just figured out an amazing fact... in a lifetime If each trip to the washroom cost us a dime Averaging five trips a day Living to eighty lets say That's fourteen hundred bucks, way too much wine

Ocean

I wish I had an ocean
To fill with all the times
I thought I had it figured out
But I've filled that ocean 
So many times
And the waves 
Keep coming back to you 
One day
I'll catch those waves
