In a Bangkok dry cleaners window, “Drop your trousers here” But they get lots of curious people with nothing to clean I fear Takes all kinds it seems Making up the world's scene But this takes the cake or maybe I just misheared

GooseSta Dizygotic: a broken heart's ten lines

The tree of the knowledge of good and evil
The tree of life and death
The green apple is poisoned red
The spools of light spoilt on murky depths
Este morning star
Esterification bedrock brooks
Limb for limb
Right eye to the left
Commodiously windswept
Wynn takes the cake

Premium Member Heartache Takes the Cake

A rainbow of flavours 
In every bite
I've savoured the sweet
And the spice of each
Plunged my tongue deep
Into pain's body
The depths of which met me
Eager to parley
The difference is plain
When your body is broken
You're glad you're alive
Unlike heartache
When you just want to die.


Premium Member My Favorite Food For Thanksgiving

Aunt Kate's Wine Cake---

A dash of nutmeg in the batter, 
takes the cake and makes it better.
But the splash of wine that she adds later,
and another cube of butter
makes us all a little fatter !

C uisine on a spoon or plate for afters
H eaven coats my tongue the dish of masters
E asy peasy recipe so sweet
E xtra portion swallowed what a treat
S auce swirls, noisettes, a blob or two of cream

C hoose a honey pot ye sweet tooth diners
A sk a chef making tummy liners
K eep gorging comfort food for goodness sake
E  at yourself hearty this stuff takes the cake

FBI Director Kash Patel:
the POTUS thinks he's really just swell.
But political pundits think he's a knob
who simply isn't up to the job.  

He likes to take credit for others' success.
What he's actually accomplished is anyone's guess.
The Republicans ask "Is he even legit?",
and many conservatives say he's unfit.

In the Pumpkinfuhrer's cabinet,
Kash really takes the cake.
But one should never interrupt an enemy
when he's making a mistake.
