Verses

[Phoebe]

Because my "brilliant" haiku were removed
I shall resort to measures far improved
To praise the semi-dear departed ones
Who used to post with us but now are gone

For those of you who also wish to say
How sad you are that others went away
Or speculate on names nobody knows
Although they still appear on lists below
You're welcome to post verses here with me
Free from unfettered use of delete keys
Please post in any rhyme scheme that you like
Or post free verse if you can't make that shit happen right

Our problem here is not that people need
To be voted away and let us be (except Phoebe)
Rather the fact is many who have come
Have gone again and left us sad and numb



:crybaby:

Another tragic problem on this site
Is that emoticons don't come out right
You now may see above that posting "cry"
Will work and "crybaby" does not, but why?
These little yellow faces with their tears
Must capture all our poignant hopes and fears
Sometimes it is important readers know
That little hands are rubbing off the flow
Of bright blue teardrops as they spray out wide
The plain old "cry" emoji lets this slide

[Phoebe]

Once long ago we had a buddy here
Who cracked jokes and improved the atmosphere
She called herself some dum something you know
But was opposite dum; where did she go?

[Phoebe]

The dog and I are engaged in a war
Because the weather outside is so poor
He does not wish to do his deeds outdoors
For fear of being caught in a downpour
And thus I quickly close the basement door
So he can't sneak back down there any more
Thank heavens that's the only place he chose
As substitute for grassy lawn or snow

[Phoebe]

Why are you voting our Cazmonster off
When all monsters we wish to vote back on?
Sure, have your humor, but in here I scoff
Whilst voting all back; would even take Don.

El Jefe loves us oh so very much
He sat in on our RPGs and such
His obsession with Kyle is so well known
And persists even now that he is grown
Sometimes he drops in for a post or two
Then disappears again. Why? I've no clue.
