I think that I shall never see,
Joyce Kilmer making a poet tree.

[Preston, Moderator]

For what for her is but a rhyme,
is for my dog his bathroom paradigm.

[Roger]

I've always wanted to understand a smidgen
Of what it's like to be a para-diggim,

[Roger]

To be a set of linguistic items forming a mutually exclusive choice
In a particular syntactic role that gives volume to my voice.

[Roger]

On the other hand brevity is cool,
For verbosity makes me look like a fool.

[Preston, Moderator]

I didn't understand a word you said,
But understood the letters from A to Zed.

[Preston, Moderator]

I used to lead a band called A to Zed,
But that's a tale for another thread.

[Preston, Moderator]

So please forgive me my gusto has fled,
I think Gus took a shower and fled to bed.

[Preston, Moderator]

I think my rhymes should get Lambda awards,
for being the best nonfiction on our boards.

[Preston, Moderator]

I know I can win, it's a harsh but simple story,
All you need to do is submit to the wrong category.

[Preston, Moderator]

Besides you've a better win in my humble views,
Cuz you get five stars from me in my reviews.

[Preston, Moderator]

So in the winning spirit of this that and thereof,
What greater award could you want than all my love?

[Preston, Moderator]

All those awards are like a poem that complains,
Because accolades falter but love remains.

[Roger]

Your sweet words have made me overcome,
Stolen my breath, turned me dumb.

[Roger]

But there again, ignore the above
And know you simply have my love.

[Preston, Moderator]

Oh my gosh we're like a M/M story,
Except Oli's wrath would make it gory!

[Preston, Moderator]

Perhaps we'll go for a mé·nage à trois,
No I think that's too bourgeois.

[Preston, Moderator]

Besides it would cause a brouhaha,
and attract a lot of hoopla.

[Preston, Moderator]

Better to sit in the garden for our last hurrah,
Praying for sun from that snuggly god Ra.

[Preston, Moderator]

Sitting their chatting, you the shah,
and me in honorable role as pasha.

[Preston, Moderator]

You'll look so very chic,
I'll just be a drab old sheik.

[Roger]

Don't deprecate, that's such a farrago,
When you're as handsome as Ramon Navarro,

[Roger]

Though of course he didn't play the Sheik,
That was Rudolph Valentino on the make.

[Preston, Moderator]

Rudy Valley on the Make,
Holding his ukelele for a remake,

[Preston, Moderator]

Shouting through a megaphone,
The lights are on but no one's home.

[Preston, Moderator]

If my euphemistic saying doesn't sound right,
I'm saying the star didn't look too bright.

[Roger]

Playing the Sheik of Araby wasn't his thing,
It's hard to feel Arabic in the heart of Palm Springs

[Roger]

It was lot's easier for dear old Peter O' Toole,
They were stuck in the desert, it wasn't cool.

[Preston, Moderator]

Hollywood is a desert cooled by lots of A/Cs,
Flooded to make it grow rows of palm trees.

[Preston, Moderator]

Californians just keep using water, they waste it,
Keep it up and they'll soon be deforested dammit.

[Roger]

Did you know that oregano comes from Oregon?
How did the Italians find it? perhaps some maricon

[Roger]

Said, "Mamma mia, such a flavor for ma pizzaria!
I must rush the erb ome to my dearest Anna-Maria."

[Roger]

The Oregonists should know better, they really oughter…
They're supposed to save for California all their water.

[Roger]

But instead they're madly growing all that oregano
So many an Italian can clap hands, mano a mano.

[Preston, Moderator]

When folks get caught with pot they often claim it's oregano.
But everyone knows those trucks from Oregon are headed for Colorado.

[Preston, Moderator]

There's an incentive to grow pot now and finagle,
a way to get to Denver where it's perfectly legal.

[Roger]

When we grew some pot, we grew it in a pot.
Oli's mother moved the pot so a lot of sun it got.

[Roger]

Out in the garden it grew like Topsy
And smoking it, we got all flopsy.

[Preston, Moderator]

Smoking once joint is like a whole pack of cigarettes,
Smoking that much gives your loved ones grave regrets.

[Roger]

Oh I gave up all that stuff a long time ago
I got to dislike it and now it's a no-no.

[Preston, Moderator]

Yeah but some think it should be legal to buy,
the same ones who banned ciggies, I decry.

[Roger]

It's very tough to make some people happy,
Take away their fags and they get all snappy!

[Preston, Moderator]

Yup in Russia they took away the fags,
Now we do nothing while Putin brags.

[Preston, Moderator]

You think it would be different these days,
But no one does anything, not even us gays.

[Roger]

Politicians find it hard to deal with Putin,
Once he's got his spurs on and goes rootin' and tootiin'

[Roger]

And when he bares his toned barrel chest,
Leaving well alone is generally the best.

[Preston, Moderator]

I think it's funny and I chortle and snort,
When see Putin standing next to anyone and he's so short.

[Preston, Moderator]

That's why his only manly image is of course
when he's 'standing tall' riding on a horse.

[Preston, Moderator]

Although in still pics or watching You tubes,
lately it looks like his pecs are man boobs.

[Roger]

You see how Mister Putin practices coitus interruptus
By pulling out of Syria early so as not to cause a ruckus.
