    Default A Poem

    You might think this was a poem written by one of history's greatest poets of love. Not so. You may think these are lines taken from a Shakespearean tragedy. 'Tis not.


    These are my words. My poem. To Nightingale:


    There once was a nurse
    Who kept my heart in her purse
    I thought about her night and day
    I’m not sure she felt the same way

    I’d crawl over hot coals
    Just to bring her a flower
    I’d eat a billion worms, if she wanted
    No matter how bitter or sour

    No one can imagine the pain in my heart
    It’s crumbled like blue cheese- It’s fallen apart
    My affections go unnoticed by God’s lovely nurse
    They may as well take away my heart in a hearse
    Serene

    Alas, your words wound, but do not kill. I have found my calling as a poet; a modern-day Robert Frost or Ernest Hemingway.



    "Words That Wound", by RWGR

    Doth thou knowest of this Handyman?
    I believe he's from Afghanistan
    First with a gun, he will not
    But with vicious words come his shot

    Loved by few, hated by many
    His fashion sense tells us he loves J.C. Penney
    Quick with a rebuttal, or offensive joke
    Life's burdens seem much too heavy a yoke

    A foe of RWGR? Or friend, which he has many?
    His rudeness worth little, not even a penny
    From his mouth cometh words, so loud and so shrill
    His words, they will wound, but they never shall kill
    Serene

    Man of Mystery - by The Handyman

    RWGR is one of many names,
    This poster uses to play his games,
    A summer spent drinking ale and beer,
    Has left him with a salty tear.

    From another country, he calls home,
    More likely Athens, or even maybe Rome,
    He rides an eagle on the wing,
    A poet not, ...should try to sing.

    Respect he doesn't, the likes of Morris,
    But demands of him, as goes the chorus,
    He's quick to use the word "translation",
    but suffers more from constipation.

    His Stars and Stripes he waves and heaves,
    Not knowing that it falls like leaves,
    And on the ground where it should stay,
    It is the terror of it's day.

    A teacher maybe, a poet not,
    His students often smell the rot,
    Of stale bologna found in his snack,
    Caused from his hatred of Barrack.

    He boasts and praises the US way,
    But soon he'll find one sunny day,
    Canucks are best at most they do,
    We help our friends, we do not screw.

    He thinks he's king, of this he's sure,
    He suffers from which there is no cure,
    He hopes a nurse will sponge his skin,
    But I fear her patience, it wears thin.

    Alas this poor forsaken soul,
    He pines for us to take control,
    Of his thoughts, his mind, his body,
    Whilst we suffer his poems, so shoddy.
