I wake up and look in the mirror.
Why must you be so difficult? I ask
Why can't you go with the flow?
Why must you challenge me so?
Why are you such a tangled unruly mess every morning?
Then I pull out the hair brush and tangle spray and start my day!

Hickory dickory dock
Two mice ran up the clock
The clock struck one
The other escaped with minor injuries


Mary had a little lamb
It bounced with little hops
It jumped into the street one day
And ended up as chops

Mary had a little lamb
It had a touch of colic
So she gave it brandy twice a day
Now it's an alcoholic

July the Fourth has come and gone
But the memories still linger
I got drunk and ate ten brats!
Has anybody seen my finger?

I think you are a poet!

I read this whole thread and I can't stop laughing. If you've ever seen So I married an Axe murderer all these poems remind me Mike Meyers poems he'd read aloud in the coffee shop.

I wrote a horrible poem in the streams thread yesterday and it got me thinking, hey I'm going to make a bad poem thread. So friends go for it. Write your bad poems!
A haiku

I like writing songs,
Nobody knows my frog's name,
Refrigerator.

whose that old broad I see in this mirror?
I need my glasses so I can see clearer.

She's been washing my clothes in the hottest of water,
I know cuz they all fit tighter than they oughter.

My hairbrush is full of hairs of grey,
maybe it's Lady Clairol to wash them away????

if the milk is spoiled and you go to have a sip
you spit it out
throw it out
do not put me back in the refrigerator kind sir
for if you partake of me tomorrow
i will still taste the same
worse for wear
sour,maybe more
if the relationship has soured
you break it off
sever all ties
do not return a phone call or perfumed note
read it not
for if you try to rekindle that old ember
those coals will bring you pain
shrill cries at the top of lungs...
"you'll never find someone like me again"
the receiver slams down
upon a weary eardrum
and a weary mind only can imagine...
"i should hope not!"

You can't always get what you want
pffft what does Mick Jagger know?
I'll make it rain all up in here
with dolla' bills yo'
He doesn't know me...
he's not the boss of me.
I'll tell you who is the boss of me...
Bruce freakin' Springsteen!
Yeah that's right...
I said it.
I hate his smug little buns,
back turned to me
ohhhh so Patriotic.
Neurotic.
Dude get a throat lozenge,seriously.
My cat can sing better than you.
Scooby Dooby Doo,where are you?
Oh...yeah

You grew up in Berkley
Played the Gilman?
What happened to you?
Fake Brittish accent.
Do you have the time
To listen to me wine?
No!
Basketcase of pop diluting something pure.
I hope you had the time of your life.
While the old men rage on
and the kids who took the torch.
with speed and brut force.
too strong for the main stream
stay true to the hardcore scene.

I think i can see many e-books inspired by the thoughts of these folks, Lord. Show them, crack them, make them see your Love that is an easy yolk.

Roses are red
Tulips are yellow
Does my vast flower knowledge
Make me a dateable fellow?

Roses are red
Carnations are to
I'll be alone Valentine's Day
That makes me blue

Washington State, must you toy with me?
Vile temptress, you hide your flaws behind delightful things
Peaceful hikes amidst the lush wood
Broad daylight at...a quarter to nine?!
Impeccable fruit of the sea and locally crafted spirits
Yet few things as offensive as Taco Time
Even Miata-less, there is joy to be found in roundabout after roundabout
Friendly people and pretty women abound, a gym on each corner
You there! In the hooded sweatshirt and shorts!
(and socks with sandals)
Shall I fetch you a mirror? Your head is cold, but your legs are not?
An ocean, seemingly endless, beckons, with rolling waves
Yet, no beach, no sun, sandcastles
No sun! No sun, indeed! To wear a coat in June, but why?
The people here said today was sunny; I think I shan't drink the tapwater.
'Tis merely ten in the evening, and the sun has slinked away only barely.
How does one fall asleep like this?
I suppose I could go to the gym...everyone else seems to have gone to sleep

Rose are expensive
Violets aren't cheap
So I'll give you a card
And my money I'll keep


And with that bad poem of mine, I hereby challenge AzureAfire to a "bad poem" dual. I already know she is a "good" poet, so let's see how much of a "bad" poet she can be!!!

We're waiting, AzureAfire!!!

Oh my O.O; have i just been called out to WAR?!? >.<;

Oh 'tis unexpected, so early, in the morn'!
My eyes squinted, teary still...
Marshmallows
My pillows, they felt like!
Yummy against my sleepy cheeks!
Good thing i sleep with my mouth closed
Lest i chomp off a bite
Unconsciously, whilst dreaming of
Eating flowers, wondering if
Roses taste like Chiclets
minus the thorns (they taste like blood)
And Violets, if they taste like
that purple shirt i wore
that got spilled with spaghetti
and the sauce i
sucked out before
taking them off
plunging them into the cold,
reprimanding, soapy
water-filled machine
My bestfriend since 2008
My throat just itched
Hard.
I hacked, and i think there was phlegm
And fortunately, no blood
I swallowed
And pondered why it
tasted nothing like
bananas, for that's
what gorilla breath must
taste like, shouldn't it?
I haven't kissed one
By the way.
I smell my breath
Sweet smelling still???
Listerine...
I love you!!!


There, Descyple!!! :rolleyes: ARE YOU HAPPY NOW??? I AM!!! :cool: Where has this thread been all my life???

First of all, good of you to accept the challenge, AzureAfire.

Secondly, this is supposed to be "bad" poetry, not very skilled (albeit highly eccentric) poetry!!!

Thirdly - chiclets, gorilla breath, phlegm, and listerine!!! How in the world am I supposed to respond to that one??? Another "Roses Are Red, Violets Are Blue" poem simply wouldn't be a good enough response, so now I have to come up with something much more complex (and yet still bad!!!).

You have proved to be a worthy adversary, AzureAfire. So prepare to be dazzled (or horrified!!!).

Okay XD forgive my yet "barely awake" brain that coughed out that poetry which you rated as not bad, but in fact, very skilled and highly eccentric!!! Now i feel bad for missing the mark o.o;.....*sniff!* >.<;

I equated ridiculous with bad, that's why XD maybe i should just type off the first random words that get into my head, and see where it leads? XD hopefully not towards a headache, and an even more violent response from you!

Oh yes, please do try to dazzle and horrify me, Descyple!!! XD (i'm a "blood and gore"-loving chick, so anything horrifying is such a treat!!! :cool:) i'm sure you could come up with something that can go against Chiclets, gorilla breath, phlegm, and listerine (not to mention blood XD).

Hey, did i just encourage you?!? O.O; i forgot that you asked for WAR!!! >.<; prepare to be eccentrified even more!!! (i'll try really hard to make it bad too!!!) ROWWRRR!!! >o<;

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I will now attempt
To write worse poetry than you

I could speak of springtime
And it's bringing of new life
But that would be too good
And wouldn't cause strife

Nor will I write of inspiring things
That breathe life into the hearts of others
Instead I will impede an encouraging read
And speak a word that quickly smothers

I believe it is now self-evident
That by the end of this dual
I will be the one crowned
CC's Poetry Fool



Deal with that bad one, AzureAfire!!!
