Sarah Flanigan - Poetry Simply Put

Let us make a deal
No one sees our subterfuge
The record is sealed.

Sharks lurk openly
Grin in false camraderie
Their teeth in your back.

Stupid terrorist
Doesn’t know modern weapons
Don’t heed religion.

Bin Laden coward
Dark soul evil-seeking heart
His crimes against man.

I gave my love
a Christmas tree
and trimmed it up
real nice.

In hopes that
he would see
that I deserved
the ice.

I strung it full
with tiny lights
and ornaments
of gold.

So he would really
set his sights
on something
rather bold.

Beneath the tree
I stacked the gifts
to make his eyes
go wide.

To raise his heart
to the cliffs
so his joy
could not hide.

He held me close
and kissed my cheek
and grinned
so very big.

But when I looked
and took a peek
I saw that he
was just a pig!

No engagement ring
did I find
beneath my
glorious tree

But rather just
some non-stick pots
which I threw at he….

Who broke my heart
and made me sad
on this Christmas day -
by giving me a gift
so bad
that I will make
him pay!
Merry Christmas! Sarah

I put you in
a suit of Elf
and asked you not
to be yourself
No wag, no bark, no jump or drool
for just the season of the yule

So many pictures
I did take
and promised you
both shrimp & steak

You stood there mute
so mad at me
that I was worried
you would pee
and make a mess
for me to clean
while gloating like
some beauty queen.

No matter how
I begged or teased
you gave no damn
if I was pleased.

When at last
I was done
I let you loose
to have some fun
you took your chewie
jumped on the bed
made a face
and rolled back your head

But that’s okay
cuz you’ll forget
about the suit
and the hat.

And next Christmas
when you’re not looking
a new yule suit
I’ll be hooking
about your belly
so big & fat
and you’ll be wishing
you were the cat.

I’m interupting our regular programming to make an announcement.

This website http://pierresccservice.com/ is a splogging machine. I happened upon it because it showed up as an incoming link. Lo and behold there was one of my stories. I left messages harrassing them - and I see now it’s been removed, but the site is filled with other people’s content.

You may want to visit them to insure they are not ripping you off.

My friend Writer Chick did a post about this a few weeks back. If you are interested in learning more about sploggers.

Anyway just wanted to give a heads up.

We will return to our regular programming now.
