I just noticed that we have this poetry section with two inches of dust on it, does anyone here like poetry?

My appreciation of poetry is pretty much limited to rhymes that begin "There once was a wench from Nantucket," but I read recently somewhere that poetry is "the interior analogue of travel, an exploration of the mind and soul." I'd never really thought of it in quite that way before.

I guess since a bunch of people have looked at this post and nobody is jumping up and down wanting to post poetry we can do away with the section.

Wahoo, it's:

There once was a man from Nantucket,
his ___ was so long he could suck it
he said with a grin wiping the ___ from his chin
if my ear was an _____ I would _____it.

I don't appreciate poetry the way some people do.

My idea of great poetry is:

I woke up this morning and I had myself a beer,
I woke up this morning and I had myself a beer,
The future's uncertain, and the end is always near.
Let it roll baby roll,
Let it roll baby roll,
Let it roll all night long.

Another of my most favorite poems:

I really do appreciate the fact you're sittin' here
Your voice sounds so wonderful
But yer face don't look too clear
So bar maid bring a pitcher, another round o' brew
Honey, why don't we get drunk and...


I always forget the rest of the poem.

More inspirational verses:

May your liquor be cold,
May your women be hot,
And may your troubles slide off you
slicker than snot


Here's to you,
And here's to me.
Friends forever we will be.
But if we ever disagree,
Then **** you, too, here's to me.
