Humorous (I hope) poetry about peace protesting!
myself

Posted on 03/24/2003 5:22:59 PM PST by proud American in Canada

One of my hobbies is writing spoof poetry and songs. I wrote this limerick today for a friend of mine who has family in the Air Force currently fighting in Iraq.

It could be a lot of fun to write spoof poems, limericks, haiku, whatever... I know there are a lot of creative people here! So here goes:

There once was an actress named Susan, Whose opinions were truly confusin'. Her ideas she did spew, Angering most people too. It's no surprise her next movie'll be "Losin'."

Hope you guys like it! :) And if anyone knows how to make a line break so that it looks like a poem, I'd love to hear how to do it! :)

Good, Proud. How about--

Starry-eyed Susan the Red
Lured Saddam Hussein to her bed
But when she went out
To powder her snout
He buggered Tim Robbins instead.

I'm glad we have good people like you to the north of us!    In order to line-break, you need to insert <br> at the end of each line.   Good work pAiC!

I liked it indeed!

Here's my attempt:

There once was a senator named Tom
Who said that Bush’s diplomacy was a bomb
He was very, very sad
That UN relations were so bad
And that we’d be so unfair to Saddam.

For your reading pleasure, courtesy of ME!!

The Oscars this year were so dismal
With peaceniks and rantings abysmal
But when Michael Moore
Said the War he'd Abhor
The viewers broke out Pepto-Bismol.

Hurrah for the land of the free!
May it wave as our Banner "for-e'er"
But all those who boast
That our Nation is toast
Should be humped by a big horny bear.

Our Soldiers, Sailors and Marines
Eat freeze-dried potatoes and beans
But our Zoomies live fine
On lobster and wine
But no French - Florida Muscadine.

One more:

A prime minister, name of Chirac,
Tried to get France’s relevance back
He wants to believe
His country could retrieve
Something they’ll always lack.

Here I go and don't even know what to say
Tom Dasheel the the slut and boil on the butt
of the good US of A. Or perhaps the tweedling of
Kuric whose needling negative points every day.
Maybe myopia,inertia, sepsia propel those so gay whose lack of a future, religion and nurture allow them to get in the way.

I can't help it, I'm an addict. Here's one more --

Ed Asner, the peaceniks' proud Caesar
Bristled when called "an appeaser".
He said, "It's not true,
"You haven't a clue.
"I'm a rat, and a treasonous geezer."

(I hope I'm not in trouble with this one.)

I can't get a line on Rich Gere.
There's really no proof that he's queer.
But it's hard not to note
The rumors that float
Of creatures deployed up his rear.

Okay, here's another one:

In Hollywood, did Michael Moore,
Spew nonsense that Americans deplore.
While further north, angry protest queens
Mistook the sidewalk for latrines.
In front of bulldozers is their last stand,
Or on bridges, wishing too late for land.
But our troops should know that those Hollywood stars
Will soon be earning their pay by washing cars.

Thanks for the link to your thread, it's great. But I'm going to have to ponder this for a while. I'll try and think up a good one. :-)
