WOLVERINE KARMA

WESTERN MICHIGAN GOES HA

LOST TO IOWA

Premium Member The Fickle Finger of Fate

The crowd stomped, the crowd screamed, PUT IN FORD!

The coach screamed, PUT IN FORD!, the crowd ROARED!

Hail Mary saved the day,

Ford fifteen feet away...

Fate ignored, Ford got floored, never SCORED!

We used eggroll wrappers
to make the best
taco beef
with fried cheese
and three cheese
cassorole
delisious
topped with crush doretos and shredded cheese.
tomato sauce dripping
teasing the hungriest persons imagineation
 a dish for people
who like delious food!

He lacked concern for
the people who wished to use the flute!
I sent my Giant Incain Monster
to deal with his foolishness
as he refused to wipe off
the mouthpiece!"

Skidmark Queen

She may
have won
but she
still lost
control 
of her 
own bowels
and 
endangered
so many
others
all for 
the love 
of
sports.

Note: That nasty Hyrox lady should have been disqualified.

     In this age of greed and weed

Unless divided

And exploit the tension
Science majors, and grapplers
Compliment me
Hold my trophy high
For the world
To see

Excited bout the night
I defend my title
Boo's and jeers greet me
But there is some who
Appreaces championship

Talents line up
Too face me
Got that rizz
Something about me

Ooh do wop ooh auh

Premium Member Summer of Smiles

A summer of smiles, a paradise of play, 
lively, lighthearted laughter, each delirious day -
I clobbered all contenders in ping-pong. 
I sought and I seized every fly ball in the field
in the picturesque park where I wheeled.  
The charms of childhood’s recreation revealed - 
I reach back and recall a sweet summer song.

Hungry Map

When I walk,
beneath my feet,
the road begins to sound.

I listen
to the music of the road.

When I walk,
beneath my feet,
the road begins to dance.

I move my feet
to the rhythm of its dance.

When I walk,
beneath my feet,
a map of the road takes shape
.
I scatter myself
across the map of the road.

I want to play
with the road.

Hungry map

It gobbles up
my body.

Hole in One

Golf loving Paddy from sunny Glambole
was truly a gentle fun-loving soul
but he was a big bloke,
he took a well-aimed stroke
Sara the caddy yelled "wrong hole, wrong hole”

BRONCOS HAD A VICTORY

Empty Seats

I’m watching the Open,
(To me, such a treat!)
Surprised to see every
Unoccupied seat.

The weather is iffy -
There’s been lots of rain.
Perhaps that is why
Empty seats still remain.

Of course, it’s a work day,
With kids back in school,
And sneaking away
Maybe isn’t so cool.

But I don’t regret
That I’m watching from home,
A comfortable place
To be writing this poem.

It’s nice to see sports
Where the action is made,
Though the travel and cost
Make TV a fair trade.

                Juan bought seats for the pickleball tourney
                Sonia was glad to go on their journey
                      Juan showed her his paddle
                      She made it go ‘twaddle’
                 Sonia was pleased, said ~ 'Seems you prefer me'

The farce of Brydon Carse


Our nation’s reputation is already scuffed

The chunter as another punter got duffed

Generation.. blunter advice have rebuffed


Latest sensation of vice Root not chuffed

Spice not once but thrice & chests puffed

No VIP pass in the splice should be stuffed


ECB still choosing Key as yet again fluffed

Are accusing Rob the knob’s gob we huffed

Stokes an a*se blokes boozing not snuffed

Trite this sh*te will be alright they bluffed 

A farce losing Brydon Carse as got cuffed

The End of the Roll

A toilet is my peaceful place,
Where I can just sit and hide my face,
I can sit and relax and read my news paper,
Sit and read about the recent news capers.

Then when I finished my business I realize there is only one sheet,
So I sit there thinking on that cold hard seat,
Then finally it comes to me, I'll use the sports page from my daily news sheet!!
