Playing Bridge

Gov. Chris Christie
Whose promises are twisty.
Played with A Bridge Too Far
With a Democrat he did spar....

Chris Christie
the road to the truth may be just a tad twisty
a bridge too far
the bully boy suggests you had no need to come by car....

It's my favorite sweat treat
and one I enjoy,
they are long, round, and twisty
come in 2 flavors
red and liquorish
and taste good
good!...

I am unlovable

If we are the sum of all our parts
I am unlovable
My parts are broken
Dark and dingy and twisty
The sum of my parts are jagged
And I am unlovable...

 Love is
  :  like a fragrant moonlight which graces
 the immortal  hued Spring.
  :like a graceful daybreak which walks
  along a tough, twisty road.

A dragon purchased Kamasutra for fun,
Tried the poses one by one in the sun.
But in a twisty embrace,
He fell flat on his face,
Now he's learning love's not easily done!...

Tautology aught to be taught as an ology
'cos an ology taught twice is tautology










Thinking about tonuge twisters
This was not twisty enough, but still interesting I thought !...

Blissfully, she wraps herself up like a sweet treat
and realizes she may just be gobbly eaten,
A game of battleship ends with a defeated fleet
and the pews pews are all so well hidden.
Never cautiously with the retreat
and my actions are forever of Oblivion,
and swans before ducks twisty of forbidden....

He was a troublesome kid,
Who punched the others and hid
If this wasn't safe, off slid
To be of reprisals rid...

Venturesome troublesome kid,
Who pot distances from lid
And could 12:00 pm from Mid;
A Life of the Twisty Grid
A street wise worldly - wise kid,
Who torched things and asked "who did?"
Nigeria's Grid of A kid?....

repressing violet memories
suppressed love of blue
formation of reactions
rationalisations
earth is revolving
around the sun now
are you absolutely certain
todays science
tomorrows ridicule
displaced reactions
inhibited intellectualisations
sun is sinking into
the womb of the
waiting barren sea
the pinky twisty tongue
taste of salt and tears...

The twisted and twirled 
Poison Ivy
Of Pride and Arrogance
In the misty woods of its own,
Retaining itself to be shown
Or itself to be stirred. 

The gusts of words 
Not able to halt 
The poison Ivy swelling, 
Swelling on the earth of accessors, 
Bringing death to all. 

Nothing left but 
The misty wood of 
The twisty and twirled 
Poison Ivy
Of Pride and Arrogance....

I can't stop smiling
My happy sighing
The feeling of weightlessness
I guess this is happiness
My head is in the clouds
I want to shout out loud
Crazy, twisty, twirly
That's the way my stomach is whirling
Jumping, bursting, curling
Myself is unfurling
I'm laughing again
Dancing my way to la la land
Bouncing on my bed
The sunshine behind my head
As free as a dove
I'm guessing this is...
Love?...

Soft tongue, sharp teeth
Leave unto me your poetry like a wreath
Ivory skin, translucent.
You breathe color unto me,
Wreak ravishing horrors.
We become Dionysus’s servants
Dance, dancing mad,
tremulous whispers lulling me further 
Into the eye of the maelstrom.
Twisty and dark, your salty kiss burns and deteriorates.
You spit out the bones, the tarry flesh, cracks besmirched ivory
A rusted over echo
Of a copy of a copy of a copy...

whisky is RISKY
                                                        but tasty
                                           after all you become twisty
                                           ANGRY hungry till freaky
                                           then messy and hefty
                                          finally  just a note-less naughty
                                                who WORSHIP whisky...

wiry wily 
snakily snake
like a load of spaghetti
all coily not straight

roundy and writhy 
curly with flow
like stringy all knotty
and cotton to sew

a scribble of dribble
all longy in length
and bendy and turny
beginning to end

spirally spiralled 
wriggly and roll
wiggled and wavy
like a zigzaggy pole

snakey and snakile
like an old twisty loop
sinewed and mazy 
or ouroboros hoop

so anyway a snake
a snake anyway
did I mention a snake
I think I did say
