Bad Poetry Flamingo

Just plain bad poetry

To my utter surprise 

And satisfying jubilation

I viewed a bird

Through ovular tubes and lens

 

Wearing clothes half holographic

Making me wonder

Were they even in fashion

But, beneath she was

And more than ever attractive

 

With brown painted Dominican skin

A bird apathetic in action

Like a Spanish flamingo

Pink lips in a grin

 

She stood in my way

And also her ground

Slender legs which

Seemed more like cranes

Or planes that never touched down

 

And radiant, a graduate

As the sun’s own student

So hot with her many fires and burning degrees

Her eyes the rays which melted

Into deep dark chocolate

 

Messages creamy, calorized 

And subliminal they shouted

An interruption which fed

Upon my brain as toxin

 

Was she wanted

To very much get physics and fiscal

But, I just wasn’t that kind of man

So I insisted like the Dutch we split up the meal

And then in marriage

I might consider her hand

Interesting, Mike. I never would have guessed you used the random words required in the contest. They all made sense in a funny way. Good job! :)

[Michael G. Smith]

It was to doing this type of challenge. I like how I just looked at the list and let my mind form a poem, kind of like a jumble puzzle.

[Michael G. Smith]

fun, fun doing...

[Debbie_Philly]

I have to admit though some of it is really funny..... ;)

[Debbie_Philly]

I love the way your word really describe everything you are seeing.... I really like this piece but I dont think its bad poetry.... not at all.. I liked this allot ;)

[Michael G. Smith]

I tried but sometimes the unconscious writes what it wants. Thanks for checking it out.

[Pryde Foltz]

Bad and funny----success.

[Michael G. Smith]

Bad poetry is a new form invented right here and we are witnessing history.

[Pryde Foltz]

Bad is the new good.

Funny, clever, a bit of Lewis Carroll.

[Michael G. Smith]

There's a list of words going around to be used to write bad poetry. I never knew trying to write bad was so hard.

[Rita L. Sev]

I love what you did with the given words, Mike! And that you worked in sweet sentiments about your wife - well done! This contest is getting some great "bad" (but so good) pieces!

Is this for the contest? A lot of people have been writing it so I'm guessing you're entering the contest. Good luck! :) This is amazing, loving it Mike!

[Michael G. Smith]

I didn't enter it I just had fun with it.

[s y e]

[Laminators Dubai]

thanks for sharing! ^^

[Michael G. Smith]

Oh come on, this one my worst poems.

[Laminators Dubai]

i like bad....tells me what is good actually.

[Frieda P]

Geez you tried to make even the bad poetry sound romantic, you got it bad Mikey! Ha, this is actually quite interesting, don't think it would qualify....

I think you meant 'what' she wanted....but don't change it, it can stand as the bad part, and um, you can say brown I see............... ;-)

[Michael G. Smith]

That's the bad part. I couldn't help it as soon as I read the list of words the poem wrote itself in my mind. Have you seen that new show blacklist? Man it's really good. I'm watching it right now.

[Frieda P]

No, I don't watch much TV, it's usually bad....
