That neb

A collaboration with another WC poet. Her words were lame so I'll credit her with the full stops only. Thank you for reading.

Tis a true and classic neb

A surgeon must have done it

But you say no - naturally.

I love the broad bridge

The semi-flared nostrils

like open arms

for each new breath.

I have never seen you blow 

that neb.

Once when I was being impatient

you scolded me with the words

"I wonder would you

Suck my neb until 

the pub opens!"

Those words told me that 

you love me.

Author's Note

This is an April fool joke
p.s. 'neb' is slang for nose

hahahaha I'm sure that writer would be super pleased with having the credits of full stops ;) ;p
I feel full stops are the most important part of writing poetry :p ;p
This is way too cool, Tony!
The last lines seems like you're too sure sure of yourself lol She might hate you ;p
Oh btw.. this is a good april fool poem. :)
Shall I say.. well done, you both!! ;p

[Tony Jordan]

Full stops aren't as important after all, I've decided so I'll take all the credit. Empty stops is what counts.!!
Thank you Yumna. Glad you liked this one
;p

[Dr. YumnaKay]

No give at least the credit of inspiration Tony! you didn't come up with the idea of the nose, did you? ;p
You're welcome Always :) This is my favourite! I'll read it whenever I'm down lol :p

[MsJewel]

I love the creativity! A lot of fun here! :) Julie

[Tony Jordan]

Thank you Julie - this is the opposite to a magnum opus - a magnum 447 - lol
:D

Shakes her head and groans long and loud. Kudos. Never more lovely words or hideous pictures painted concerning the protuberance upon the face of a lover. :-)

[Jimmy Yetts]

Offbeat and revealing.
Always thought that nose-sucking was merely a local fetish.
The fact that this intimate custom is also practiced in the UK pretty much brought me to a full stop.
Thank you for letting me read!

[Tony Jordan]

Some things I've witnessed recently - especially in the bars and clubs here, would make the hairs in your nose stand on end Jimmy.
:D
Thank you - as always - my friend.

[Alfred Kukitz]

A cute funniness that finds its way into the lungs!

[Tony Jordan]

Hi again Al, thank you for absorbing this one - lol

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ok I am not sticking my nose in here but this had me laughing till it hurt!

[Tony Jordan]

Just acting the fool here John - glad you got a laugh mate :))

[Shabeeh Haider]

A nice first April fools day poem.
Strange those words made you realize that she loved you....

[Tony Jordan]

Perhaps it was the way she said them ;)

thank you - good to see you again Shabeeh

Lol ..very creative and humorous .... you have a great imagination, loved it!

[Tony Jordan]

Too kind Hebe - thank you.
I appreciate your visit !

Don't see why the neb sucking could not continue down the pub. I'm mean its not doing any hard is it? Beats bar skittles any day of the fortnight if ye ask me.
Could start a neb sucking league. Along the lines of my cat wanging for beginners. Can see an opening here.

[Tony Jordan]

Haha - well I would rather suck the n****e of the pump but I dare say neb-sucking could catch on. Do cats need to be milked before being wanged - lmao - can you remember 'Number-Wang' from 'Mitchell and Webb', Ken?

[andrew mitchell]

watch out for nasal polps

[Tony Jordan]

Hahah - now that's something I didn't forsee Andrew. I guess that might be even grosser than the thought of neb-sucking in the first instance.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i had accidental plastic surgery on my nose...it was crooked and one of my sinuses was always stuffed up...but then i passed out...and hit the floor with my nose...it knocked hard enough to change the shape and open the passage...breathing is more fun now.

[Tony Jordan]

Lol - more fun - made me think of 'Fun with Dick and Jane' ...too funny Jacob. Thanks for humouring this one - good to see you !!

[Misterr Remeat]

I was trying to figure out what a neb was, and it was there right under my neb! LOL! Love it!

[Tony Jordan]

Lol- I love this retort. Class !!
Thanks M.R.
