There once was a snitch ditched in itchy pride,
sick of being tied, to grumpy cats side~
she lured his furry tail,
trapped him in a caged tale,
she sat, blowing kisses that were denied…
There was a wonderful aura about the sparkly white witch.
She had raised a sparkly fresh white owl she named Snitch.
They sat on a crescent moon and wiled the night away.
On Halloween night, until the beginning of the next day.
It is November now, the old witch said to the owl.
He nodded his head, for he was wise, this fowl.
November means Thanksgiving and a feast and such.
I know Snitch said. “I love the Indians and Pilgrims very much.”
If you Snitch, you get Stitch
If you snitch, you get stitch, like how the waters flow down Niagara Falls.
How many persons do you know that snitch? Snitch is not nice, and it
can be dangerous. Snitch when you are trusted can cause you to loose
your head. Snitch,and itch can get you stitch!
I'm just not snitch or a witch or a you-know-what
that starts with a 'b,' at least I hope I'm not, but
eating my candy, dear brother, is simply not jim-dandy
--In fact, it's a hurtful kind of modus operandi
For you see how much bigger you are than poor me
as my modest stature and heft pegs me as 'wee'
and I would never ever, Bobby, do that to you
So please excuse me my cry now ~ Boo-hoo-hoo…

If I Were Your Brother Poetry Contest
Sponsor: Bobby May
it makes me angry
to know you are so lazy
but have found a way to hate me
you act so shady
& like a little baby
maybe
you should worry about your life
stick to trying to be a good wife
& stop stabbing people in the back withuot a knife
This love swelling up within me
Brings me to an epiphany
Breaking the rules of gravity
I fly into he arms of Grace.
Crucifying the flesh, the witch called Selfish
Embracing the Amish I make a wish
To never abandon the rich
For which I am a snitch.
