Have A Rhyme Of A Time — Page 2

What have I done to you

That you must here undo

Our wonderful rhyming time

If e'en our thoughts aligned?

I was once…but now I’m not… Further: zyzzogeton

“It wasn’t the flood that destroyed the pantry…”

It is Danfun I quote:

Did anyone take note

Of the hidden message

In the poem I wrote?

Fixed your rhymeless garbage

In the above misquote.

Possessed said*:

"I do not jest,

I am of accord."

So quoth Possessed,

But in fewer words.

 *Tried to rhyme this I ded, but without success, I'm afred.

In the above short verbage.

Possessed said*:

"I do not jest,

I am of accord."

So quoth Possessed,

But in far fewer words.

And now I am stressed

To make these converge

 *Tried to rhyme this I ded, but without success, I'm afred.

 Alas here we go again

Oh dear, but what a pain

I was once…but now I’m not… Further: zyzzogeton

In defense of dear Possessed

Your objection I contest

His last post where he with you concurs

Rhymes with the previous post of yours

Sounds like a question of lust

And a question of trust

And a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust.

 Cheater, cheater

Pumpkin eater.

Team Olie

 Though indeed these words I borrow

Your lack of appreciation gives great sorrow

For the piece to which these lyrics belong

I thought thought you had borrowed from the same song

But alas, hypocrisy! I'm not defeated!

Your rhyme here shows that you too have cheated!

This thread is a fun addition to the Off Topic section

But it's tough to know what to say sans direction

Perhaps, and I hope my suggestion's not treason

But could we actually rhyme with a reason?

 Well thank you for now I do see

Dear Possessed I am truly sorry!

 Well certainly that could be really good fun

But, how should we choose it? By referendum?

Frink's onetime namesake

 But the rhyme scheme's AB,

And if you were to count,

You'd soon find the amount

Of syllables to be

Not seven, not eight, no,

Just six in every row.

Well be that as it may

What rhymes is what counts

You can add them all day

Get all sorts of amounts

 I've long been a fan of autocracy

I say, "Topic by dictator's decree!"

To reiterate what I wrote, if I wasn't clear

Is that you get to decide what we discuss here

Lord of your home, though right now you find respite

Yet here in this thread, why you're supreme despot

While far from your family and where you reside

We here are your subjects, in this thread you preside

Where are you buddy? Your posts are mere dearth

Have you fallen off the edge of the earth?

Forgive my anxiety--it's been but a day

Yet it's so hard to rhyme when the OP's away

No doubt he's been working

And has had no time for lurking.

He works with HTML and PHP,

With MySQL and JavaScript you see,

But since it's not part of his day job,

So on weekends, under his code name Bob,

He works on his computer prograhm

Instead of hanging out on OT.com.

I see I have some catching up

This needs my full attention

I'll give this thread a gentle bump

To keep it from suspension

Though in general this be true

It was not what detained me

My power cord I didn't stow

Led to a dead battery

Very good Ender, you now are on track

To make this thread your own

But now that I'm here

I'll want it all back

Until next I go home.

Journey is a band,

that is not so grand.

 But surely you jest my squirrely friend

For Journey is e'er great to hear

I hope that you I don't much thus offend

When I claim something's wrong with your ear

Do no fear, for I am not insulted

But be not surprised to find your stereo deadbolted.

Although I do suppose my lips I could moisten

To admit that they are better than Poison.

Well with this I may agree

Though I do enjoy the pair

Something worse than them for me

Would be something from Allaire

This thread is odd

Why doesn't a mod

Declare this thread

Officially dead

(Of course I jest

This thread is the best)
