Short Suiters Poems

The willowy blonde with flaxen hair
Showed icy eyes at the county fair
Being cruel and mean
And stuck up like a queen
Suiters were no longer standing there...

Did The People Crucify Jesus?

Our power
This hour. 

The gov
We have. 

Our right 
Hold tight. 

Dismiss
The kiss.

what was she contemplating?
She seemed introspective and preoccupied
Women who are pensive are often fascinatingly contradictory

which words
makes him stumble
those he wishes to hear
or those he longs to hear

which words do she want to hear
those that causes togetherness

Her six brothers warned her to stay plain.
But as she grew, she could not help herself.

Merry was the prettiest M that ever could be
She was swirly and floral, a gorgeous sight to see
We tried to compliment her, but she did not hear

She was truly the prettiest M that ever could be....

She had bulldogs, basset hounds, and puppies so fat.
They followed her inside and lay down on her bed.
The mattress was cozy underneath each little head.

So the stuck-on-herself hedgehog was now happy, not blue....
