Comebacks

Dear Princess Lira,

Thank you, sweetie, for you welcome back message. It's heartening to know that not everyone has forgotten about me. (smiling bravely through the tears) Come have a cocktail with me, darling - I feel a poem coming on...


On My Preference For The Sea, by LCM

Yes, I've been both there and here
Seen the usual and the queer
But nothing dares compare to this
Here in our unfetered bliss
I say to all, my friends and foe
If you ask, I'll tell you "Go"
I've held the world in both my hands
In the ports of stranger lands

I've spent my time with witty men
But In the end, I pity them
For at the docks, you'll find me beamin'
In the company of seamen

Words And Such

Melanie, darling!

How fabulous of you to drop by and compliment me on my vividness. As a resident of Texas, you surely know the how-you-say of the English language. (patting wig, passing Melanie a cocktail) So anyhoo, sweetie, I think I should write a poem about words. I mean, they're a fabulous tool for any modern gadabout, along with the icy smile and withering glare. Let's see what I can come up with...


The Slower Wit, by LCM

I often say, I will admit
My words see me in deficit
When bright young things as you, my dear
Wearing such and so, come near
"Oh how pretty!" I'll profess
Gazing at your latest dress
"It couldn't be just off the racks"
"I've been to Macy's and to Sax"
"You've been sewing, true it rings"
"Who knew machines could do such things?"
But when you saunter off, impressed
I tell the others "What a mess."
"The salesman was an evil jester"
"To put a cow in polyester."
