The Way the Moon Shows Off Your Eyes Why it's Just Paradise!
By Walter Burns
A single light endures the room Smoking fingers impending doom Weaved from webs upon the gloom The vilest beast has been exhumed His teeth are missing but a few His hair is long and unkempt too And everything is screaming you Better not believe he’s true His collar’s high to block the glare You wonder if he’s debonair A bullet from your silverware Could only kill his savior faire He plucks his brow and shaves his chest He sucks his gut and does his best To eat the birds of vultures nest And smell to see if waters’, blessed The rental shop had one deluxe He kicks his way through all the mucks Festooned puddles he seldom ducks But, for this time to save his tux He comes on knocking and you implore “If you’ve no flowers leave from my door” You hear a curse and nothing more The rain begins to softly pour The night is fading the moon so full Chased the sun like maddened bull And you are torn from magic pull To place on head a cap of wool Your eyes sweep o’er with waking dreams The moon has left one final beam Then too it fades in silent scream “Nothing wakes as once it seemed!” The menace dies as doorbell rings You hear a voice attached to kings Say that these lilies make him sing “That love is here my Lady Spring” Lady Spring? You like the sound This man must know of what he’s found The peephole sets your heart to pound You swing the door to look around His tux is sharp, his hair is neat Your smile is huge and not discreet “Make my life be thus complete!” You shout and faint right off your feet You wake up in his bachelor pad His teeth are sharp, his eyes are sad His hair is long, his clothes are bad And the smell is awful, I would add So don’t forget that monsters brew And make their dates on ICQ Even when the moon is new They will woo and marry you!Bad poem Bad poem but I did meet my wife online so here is a bit of blind date humor.=%%bronze=180324%%silver=180281%%gold=180273%%1256_judged=180273,180281,180324,180385,180420,180471,180495%%list=180273,180281,180324,180385,180420,180471,180495 Written May 14th, 2003 © on Jul 11 2001 04:12 PM PST 0 • 14
