[2022] A Time of Poetry...

[*The Butler]

... be it silly or serious, go on and spin your words and wisdom here.

Does not need to reflect anything about the person behind the MASQ, but that would make it a little funner.

Even if it were a line or two.

[* Colonel Bechamel]

This is the haiku
That makes no sense; or, rather,
Refrigerator.

[* Samhain]

I've never been good at rhymes
My poems deserve disavowin'
But I think I'll do better this time
Because my name is Samhain!

In Irish, "mh" can be pronounced either as a "v" or a "w". Samhain is actually pronounced Sow-win.

[* Colonel Bechamel]

There once was a man who liked beer.
All amber and frothy and clear.
He said "This is cool"
Then fell off his stool
And spilled all the rest in his ear.

[* Samhain]

Unable to rhyme
This haiku will have to do
I have writer's block

[* Colonel Bechamel]

Ha! You are all doomed
My Death Star will kill you all
Bwa ha ha ha ha

[* Samhain]

There one was a man named Stu
He didn't know what to do
"I just can't make a rhyme.
I'm wasting too much time!
I guess I'll write a haiku."

[* Colonel Bechamel]

There once was a high-vaulting cat
Who jumped over the fence, just like that!
'Cos on the other side
was awaiting his bride,
'twas a large female cat
(wasn't blind as a bat)
they went out for to dine
on ye olde fishing line
and they ate fishes nine,
they did not pay a fine
though they did breach the law
of the lockdown!

[* Samhain]

Sierra forum
Get help with hints and support
Codename Iceman sucked!

[* Colonel Bechamel]

I'd tsk at your lack
of politeness, but alas
you are quite correct.

[* Samhain]

There once was a man named Harry
Who failed to woo a woman named Mary
Harry wasn't the smartest
He took advice from a pick up artist
By the name of Leisure Suit Larry

[* Colonel Bechamel]

In the cruel heat of summer,
the electrician fixed the fan;
there was much rejoicing

[* Red Herring]

I am a red herring
The clues are glaring
How are you fairing?
This is no haiku
Because that's not what I do
OK, now I am through.

[* Samhain]

Sonny Bonds noted:
Irish man killed by trinkets
"Knick-knack Paddy whack"

[* Chuckie Brown]

Shiny summertime
A little, bloody girl runs
because of the boy
