Poetry
I see that Ben is composing poetry on the forum, now, and Justin is refering to Schiller, would anyone be prepared to sponsor a weekly forum poetry prize?

Re: Poetry
There is a young man name of Purton
Whose grip on reality's uncertain
How he comes to play chess
May be anyone's guess
And his postings just worsen and worsen

"Do you play chess?"
"Yes, but I prefer a game with a better chance of cheating."

Would you pair like your own section where you can play to your hearts content?

Re: Poetry
While it's kind to be offered a section
For a Purton and Horton collection
I must honestly say
I was married last May
And Ben just doesn't do it for me I'm afraid

For a man once in a holiday resort,
How did one become a groom,
For one who's comments are so pathetic.
Everyone believes the brides synthetic.

Grammatically the quip's obtuse:

Re: Poetry
Oh Spaniard I envy your caustic wit
shamefully its in the hands of a total tit.
One pities your Utopia musings
As gabble which is rarely amusing.

Re: Poetry
Young man - as an intellectual
You may prove quite ineffectual
But - there's hope for Purton yet
Will someone take him as a pet?

Oh Librarian surrounded by your books
Isn't it ashamed about those looks.
As for being a pet.
If its with your blow up doll
No need for the ad, I'm Sold!

Re: Poetry
Ben,
Rules: no direct/abusive personal attacks. Strike -1 for the pre-penultimate effort - and delete. Otherwise points even so far. Enjoying this, great diversion from trying to get my z-indexes behaving.
Justin,
Try a form other than Limerick?
Paul.
