Word Salad

For Jack!

She pulls the knife out
and prepares
to slice
but what
comes out
ain't all that nice
No dainty watercress
love slop poetry
No delicate canape
romantic flowery
She likes it hard
She likes it raw;
unrinsed
not minced!
diced or plated
She likes words simple
chopped and hacked
She really
doesn't care
if you think
She's whacked!

Delightful word play here, KL....loved it! If you are whacked, I am thwacked and thumped! The men in the white coats would have quite the time with us. :) Lydi**

Thanks. In my early days here, Jack was a great supporter, and then left. I miss him. He helped me with that whole Mature Ratings thing where the admin sanctioned me.:)

[Lydia Shutter]

I remember Jack. Always thought he was a nice guy and then he left too.

[aLittlePain]

[Lyn Anderson]

So glad to make you laugh. Hugs. xo.

[Alfred Kukitz]

Okay MS Whacked!

Directness in a woman is a fine rarity!

There are those who believe it is not worthy of being called poetry if you don't confuse people on purpose. If you like to write that way, and it's natural to you, that works. If it is forced, it comes off as bad form poetry.

Think i picked her up on saturday night.

[Lyn Anderson]

Ha ha, I thought you were a "man of the cloth"

[Paul Bell]

That's on a Sunday.

[Lyn Anderson]

you are a funny dude. And not just on Sundays.

[Papaya]

Lol. I like this one! Fun. :)

[Lyn Anderson]

These all stemmed from Jack bugging me about never being romantic. If only he was here to see me now, lol.

[Papaya]

Lol. Yup. You have changed! :)

We all have our own signature style... variety is the spice of life!! ;-). Keep slicing and dicing...

Back to basic . Plain and simple . Just A/C and engine with no options. And we all get there to our destination. Love that sense of humor ....Best humorous write. I enjoyed this - KLGoode

[Lyn Anderson]

Thank you so much, I have lots of those. Feel free to peruse me and I will do you too:)

[Frieda P]

Ha I take it Jack think you're whacked! All this chopping and hacking, you scared me, I'd hardly call this a plain salad my dear!

[Lyn Anderson]

Sorta - it's more like we are running on opposite tracks, with my bitter to his sweet, and somewhere in the middle we meet.:)

[Frieda P]

Jack is definitely sweet, but I think you underestimate yourself, you have a bitter taste left in your mouth, that freaking salad, but you're by no means a bitter person.

[Jack...]

Words are like a frozen rag
left for dead out in a bag
dark as night for all to see
till I find these words are me

KL, no dainty watercress love slop poetry????? That is too funny. I can see that on a sign, circled in red with a line through the middle.

[Lyn Anderson]

I knew you would take it the right way -- I am glad I stumbled across you via Frieda.:)

[Jack...]

As I feel the same about you my friend.
