of that American Se
doka thing. This half says zip

Passions ignited,
a random target chosen,
the flames of lust consuming.

The games have begun,
which the winners, which losers?
How is the difference known?

Take your pick crazy.
Lets keep it interesting
True diversity.

Oh bard, graceful one,
with ancient Celtic power.
Display your imposing strength.

Delight me with verse.
Mystify and bewilder.
Rhyme not what moves you away.

Lighten up Mister.
The election is over,
relax,play baseball.

"Save your politics
for the soapbox if you please
enough already"


Here is some advice.
Taking your own medicine,
will help relax you.

"Maplewood Online
Where conservatives argue
With "Lib'ral Weenies"


Not your call Duncan!
Aquaman rules this thread bud.
Butt out you weenie.

Seventeen dollars
At the car wash Saturday
Money down the drain

Snow to stop mid-day
4:45, still snowing
The weatherman lied

Salt encrusted car
It looks like a dalmation
Oh, the frustration

Insecure, No Way!
I'll show you I'm not afraid.
Just count all the syllables.

This is Sedoka!
That is four long and two short.
So there, smoke that in your pipe!

now try your luck at
Iambic Pentameter
a sonnet perhaps?


its not the time to take a final stand
against a thread whose origin is lost
in fact the poetry thats here at hand
is welcome warmth against this winters frost
But lose not sight of what was first proposed
A place wherein haiku inspires the board
to lift the thoughts and mind, it is supposed
but none too soon that peaceful hour is gored
with politics that veer from right to right
and thoughts of war and despots all around
Threat orange undermining peaceful nights
when all thats needed is so quickly found
A pair of slippers and some vintage wine
a book, or one of Shakespeares op'ning lines

Shakespeare: good quote source
Such as: "Cry 'Havoc!' and let
Slip the dogs of war"

Any suggestions for the finals for the MOL Poet Laureate title bout between Duncan and Art? Limericks...best of three falls?

But keeping with the original thread theme...

Will Duncan be crowned
or could Art get the title:
Poet Laureate

Duncan was Sbenois'
Security guard.

I’m sorry Duncan,
Iambic Pentameter,
way beyond my scope.

A sonnet maybe,
how about a pillow fight?
Can you dance or sing?

Take a final stand?
This is not the time or place,
sorry to admit.

I rather agree.
Save this thread of poetry,
origin respect.

No contest needed,
philosophy is valued.
Haiku does inspire.

Sedoka will move,
a tread of its own to come,
less we should confuse.

Therefore, I concede.
Please carry on the good fight.
Best wishes Duncan…

AJC, Duncan,

Please take it outside.
