Ah, the pleasures of poetry. Don’t know
where this one came from. Just blowing
off some steam in a constructional manner, I suppose *snorts*style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> Please
no comments on frame and form
and all that stuff. I am not a
poet! I just wrote a poem!style=\'mso-spacerun:yes\'> *another snort*


 


Margaret
Mary was a dame


Dreamt
of riches, love, and fame


But
these hopes so quickly died


When
Chester Dear took her aside


All
up-done in frills and bows


Little
bells upon his toes


He
looked at Mary and he smiled


Which
made her heart get all beguiled


He
bowed and said with voice like sleet


“Look
like a horse, you may, my sweet


“And
though I flatter not with tongue


“Like
a horse, you know, I’m hung”


Margaret
Mary cooed and awed


And
overlooked his mouth (quite flawed)


She
took him at his word, which proved


That
all dame-dreams are quite removed


When
dealt the things like Chester Dear


This
song ends sad, so I do fear


‘Cause
Chesterstyle=\'font-family:Sylfaen\'>’s mouth held more than lies


And
what lied there was mean surprise


Now
Mary is the village whore


style=\'font-family:Sylfaen\'>Chesterstyle=\'font-family:Sylfaen\'>’s flaw,” she’s known to swore


“Was
not his smile nor his quick ‘bye’


“Nor
even his like-a-horse-hung lie


“It
was a simple, bigger thing


“That
should keep others from a fling


“Love’s
not real, it’s all just gas


“But
herpes is, so watch your ass”
