View Full Version : Improvisational Jazz Poetry

Now before anyone gets arsy that this might be a piss take of this serious art board...do not get me wrong.

This 'game', if you will, is a bit of fun but can have some quite intriguing results! The idea is to write down four lines of poetry in your post...these can be one word or ten words per line, the choice is yours as with this sort of poetry there is no set tempo. Your posts can be serious or a bit of fun; they can be related to the post before or completely different.

This thread was inspired by a book of American Beat poetry which was sometimes poignant and sometimes hilarious...poetry where you can let your hair down!

Have fun...here's mine

Gravy,

Going down the stair,
I tripped, and met air,
but why should I care?
Life is hardly fair...

with a bit of scatting

schoo.. schoo, shoo, schoo.. you know
There's always one way more than one to go
Dooobie-wah, shebop, shebop
You'll never get there if you stop



And, no, I have no idea why.... ;)

Just last week
the other night,
I bought a blue jumper
It was coloured white,
I took it home
to the house next door,
I already have six
so this makes four.

Huge fat-arsed woman covered in lard
making me throb very hard,
With wobbly tits and flabby thighs
Sure is a sight for sore eyes,
Bending over and touching her toes
She lets rip.............quick hold your nose !

Jul 24, 2003, 22:50
cover your nose?
what about my hose?
it's fragile, and allergic to sme-sme-smeeells
and who knows?
it could smell like a rose?
and you'll soon be hearing wedding be-be-beeeeellls

Frankie went to Hollywood
Maybe we should
Sound good?
We can go in a car with a flip back hood.

Jul 25, 2003, 00:46
what's that? a road trip you say?
frollock to hollywood so we can play?
play in the sand, play in the hay
we might put the horses in dismay

Hollywood bound I go
Biggest land of sin I know
I'll see a few shows
and buy a new nose

Jul 25, 2003, 22:01
You say, land of sin?
Tis my house, come in
No need for Dante
For I know the way
We can laugh at them all as they pay.

dip shit
Jul 26, 2003, 14:57
as we pay? or pray for our souls
mischieve and destruction rape me of my goals
my life is full of empty promises and plot holes
but who needs this shit, to bring you down
to cure my insomnia drink coffee, brown
swirling round and round
wanna get off
feeling sick
find it hard to cough
oh shit i just let one slip
and it smells so bad it stings my nips

There isn't any cricket
And no proper beer
They don't speak English
So why am I here?

dip shit
Jul 30, 2003, 20:34
no proper beer! what the bloody hell!
that's not cricket, and it certainly aint swell
how can you live, in a place you dont understand?
you must not be in high demand
oohhh look i can see my hand
wait....that's not mine it's jupiter
BLAGGER!

Grave concerns
the old man had
for the youth of today:
"They give chinese burns,
It makes me sad,
It is not for them I pray"
