Bantering with Octagons

[Debbie]

lines lines lines
silly smile lines
expression lines
laughter lines
worry lines
facial lines
forehead lines
bunny lines
crows feet lines
lines of my life
etched in lines
life lines well spent

The lines on my face map my life history so far.

 

[cleaver]

i wanna get my fuck with you
but the internet don't care.

and really, i don't know about no fuck.
it's silly shorthand
for all the strange that comes with it.

bandwidth ain't no hand with...
gotta hand it to you.
you are safe again, tonight.

lines.
yeah.
i got a hand full of 'em...

 

[Aquagal]

Cycle on the word washer
About two pennies high.
Agitate. Twist.
Wring out the emote.

Add some bluing
For the facade
Wash tag: No sun

 

[butters]

awash with colours
scents
a world of 3-D
and then there's the walrus
always the walrus
there, if you squint sideways
he waves
his elton john sunglasses
making sense of everything

 

[Aquagal]

goo goo g’joob

The spot over there
Was a solid over here
Split by a wall ‘tween
Hrumphs and snorts and a peek
Surrender from the sweet spots

MewPewMewPew

 

[sigh]

lines define the road
pennies are for pitching
I am the walrus
goo goo g'joob

where have I gone
is there anybody
ain't likely
out there?

 

[Aquagal]

No plan, planned
Mi corazón is going home
It pulls and draws an ache
Good summation outside the zone

Ahhh to be greedy.

 

[Debbie]

lines on my face
a road map
a crack in my butt
portable seat
no flip top head
to see inside my cranium
spose it must be clear
my marbles are loose

again

 

[sigh]

loose marbles rolling
greedy
zone
going home

gazed at a tapestry of nose bleeds and loose hairs
told a story it did
pick a nick plastics and borderline dew

The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big Round Things
working title: John Dies at the End

as i lay dying,
it's midnight in the garden of good and evil
and something wicked this way comes
where the wild things are:

the hollow chocolate bunnies of the apocalypse
plot to kill a mockingbird
in the elephant tree,
and the grapes of wrath
are not a thousand splendid suns;

invisible monsters--
they're extremely loud and incredibly close
and asking when will jesus bring the pork chops?

i was told there'd be cake
in the long dark tea-time of the soul,
but it's just another bullshit night in suck city,
trainspotting in a brave new world,
contemplating the particular sadness of lemon cake.

don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining;
the moon is a harsh mistress
and nostradamus ate my hamster in lunar park.
it's no country for old men...
it's all pride and prejudice and zombies.
i hope they serve beer in hell.

well-behaved women seldom make history
but understand the importance of being earnest;
the unbearable lightness of being
maybe more the baby jesus butt plug
than life, the universe and everything;
for whom the bell tolls...

john dies at the end.

[cleaver]

fuck.

i wish i had allusions such
to puzzle through
the vagaries
that haunt into the very cloth
i chose to cloak
my vanities...

i'm naked here - but who's to know?
my puzzle's key,
inscrutable.
i wear clothes of lit-history
a million words....

immutable.

 

[Aquagal]

The thickness hangs in the throat like a face fuck of cum.
Mascara’d tears expelled.
Gasping.

Sputtering thru
Unsafe for sensitive groups.
Oppressed.

 

[Aquagal]

Come and get me
I’ll flash the pearlies towards the sky
Like my bat signal
Look for me where the waters are darker dancing like the auroras
Swirling, unencumbered, escaping the stifling dog days.
Bring your earth, air and fire to my aqua tête-à-tête.

 

[Aquagal]

Is a throat deeper in the deep end of water?
Light bent, perspectives shattered
Lips open, throat closed
Smile twinkling

 

[Debbie]

Boom Bang-a-Bang lyrics stuck in my head
repeating like a scratched stuck record I dread
perhaps it'll cause me to be dead dead dead
change the channel listen to the voices instead

 

[Debbie]

If I was a sexy silly Sally
and oft guilty of dilly dally
I'm sure I would be late
for an Important date.

 

[Hal9000_]

There we go...


Where we be..


All that matters..


Is our perception where it is.

 

[Debbie]

from whence we came once we will go
for the last hurrah let them yell Huzzah
to toast my demise with tea that'll do me
like a phoenix I'll be on fire fittingly so

Warning to demential patients.

This is a warning to all people suffering from any form of dementia. You should not read this thread. It will confuse you. If this thread makes perfect sense to you then you should be checkd for dementia right away. Also, check your bathtub because there maybe no more cats allowed on airplanes after February 30 2011.

 

[Debbie]

today I found some marbles
rolling in my mind aimlessly
rebounding round and round
maybe Im really a pinball machine
placed in an arcade in the game of life

 

[Debbie]

bent. buckled and bruised
little man tap tap tapping
dents, divots and imperfect
dont need no panel beater

 

[Debbie]

Watching someone possible unravel really isnt as fun as it sounds unless of course you can use knit one purl one and repeat to the end of the row to help them come together again.

Coo coo ka choo

 

[Debbie]

when I was but gal in my teenage years I wanted a bigger bust so I skipped around and jumping up and down chanting I must I must increase my bust thinking positive affirmations might work and then boom busty debbie wasnt happy but I doubt chants of something silly sounding like

ifen yapleiase decreasium boobage insizeus perfectom acutate

would work now in reverse

 

[Debbie]

no body nose
how cold my knows
is

 

[sigh]

gaily flinging
sight unknown
heart is singing
slip me the bone

UH
oh yeah
