Well, why not? A cheeky ditty for the weekend . . .
NathanRoberts encouraged me to write a sonnet on my arse, so earwigo!
Please forgive me!
Cheers to all!

Our Sonnet
I try to write a sonnet on my arse,
But putting pen to buttock is a pain
I bend and twist in agonising farce -
Applying nib to bum is quite insane.
I rest a while from my inspired rear work
And stand up straight to clench the stanzas four,
Compress them into centre court - "You jerk!"
I hear my critics loud, and cheer once more.
And now I pray it's saved on my behind,
Without the need for anal, strict revision.
Both love and butts are fundamentally blind -
To post this now will be a rash decision.
Will all reviews, if any, just decry our sonnet?
For sure! I'd even bet my arse on it!

And so to bed! Written by Katanga (1537 comments posted) 25th July 2008 | Sorry chaps and chapesses - a bit widdly-woo! Cheers! Katie X | Written by Veronica_Milvus (768 comments posted) 26th July 2008 | I liked this because you took a literal meaning to "on my arse" which led to some funny images... "compress them into centre court" is a metaphor that I have not heard before - is it a Katie original? And I am glad you got the word "fundamentally" into the poem too. Quite relieved that you didn't get this literally written on your arse and then treated us to a photo of it... | Thanks Veronica! Written by Katanga (1537 comments posted) 26th July 2008 | How lovely to get a review from you for this nonsense! And Josie's 'Baldicoot' was such fun, as you said! And yes, dare I say it, 'compress them into centre court' is a Katie original! It just popped into my head. Then I thought of Wimbledon - didn't John Mackenroe (Sp?) shout "You jerk!" at an umpire once? I know it was something very similar - that was the allusion, anyway. Thanks again! Cheers!

You silly arse! Cheers | Written by Phil (7007 comments posted) 27th July 2008 | Fun read, fun piece. How restrained of you to avoid the obvious too. I don't know if I would have resisted! Phil | The Obvious, Phil? Written by Katanga (1537 comments posted) 28th July 2008 | Thanks Phil, but I wasn't aware of any restraint (or re-straining) on my part to avoid anything. I have an inkling of what you may mean but would love know what you might not have resisted! If it's too rude, could possibly pop your thoughts to me via a pm? Many thanks! Cheers! John |
