Re: Neverthink, Dr. Watson
<blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>How do you know this stuff isn't my serious writing for publication?[/quote]I submitted all the poems on this thread to the French Journal "Internationale Glace (Dept. of Ice Poetry)" -- known in the trade as French Jiggy-dip, but you know that, of course. They accepted all of them for publication, but the referees asked if I would write an expanded and improved version of your concise gem "I am Lar."
I am Lar.
Lar-I-Are.
That Lar-I-Are, that Lar-I-Are,
I do not like that Lar-I-Are!
<em>But do you like Michelle a lot?</em>
I do, I do, the babe is hot!
<em>And would you like her in a car?</em>
As certain as your name is Lar!
<em>And would you like her in a box?</em>
By all the gold that's in Fort Knox!
<em>And would you like her on a boat?</em>
The image keeps this shoat afloat!
<em>And would you, could you, on a plane?</em>
Diana's loss, the Mile High's gain!
<em>And would you like her here or there?</em>
I would like her here and there,
Her up and down, her everywhere,
Her this and that, her near and far.
Thank you, thank you, Lar-I-Are.
Freddy
