My Gal Penelosquat

Missing image
Her sweet love reminds me of flowers.
I don't need her tomorrow, but nowers.
She really makes me feel groovy,
like that Mona chick at the Louvie.
She's hot, hot, hot, like a jalapeno squirt.
I would cut off my ear, but it would hurt.
Her love is a towel
cooling my weary browel.
My love is a sponge.
On our love raft,
we will plunge.

She's just so . . . unusual,
I can't find the right word.
Her hair is so . . . you know.
Her nose is so big, though.
And that name . . . Penelosquat McSchmultzerd.

    ♥I think I'm in love with this poem.♥ Seriously. You actually had me laughing out loud, a hard thing to accomplish.

    "I don't need her tomorrow, but nowers."

    and

    "I would cut off my ear, but it would hurt."

    Those are my two favorite lines. Priceless. Awesome job with the awfulness. Truthfully, I think it is so awful that it is great! Wonderful job!

    This should have won

    "I would cut off my ear, but it would hurt."

    Priceless.

    How awful is this poem? Let me count the ways.
    Congrats on the silver.

    Congratulations on having beaten me in a contest, Mark. But it was a doggerel contest and so you had a an unfair head start!

      Edna,

      Just couldn't resist, could you? lol It's okay. I recognize a good shot when I receive one. I would have said it, too. lol

      However, more surprising than receiving a message from you, a rare occasion indeed, is the fact that a writer such as yourself would enter a poem in a doggerel contest since you normally write with such sophistication and class.

    I think it is the cringingly awful rhymes in the first so-called stanza that make this a winner. Well Done.

    Awful rather than awesome. Even the picture makes me want to vomit. The combination of purple and green is particularly nauseating.

    Hi Aashik,

    It's pin-el-uh-squat. lol

    "Saucemaker". What a crack-up. Actually, that's the way Arnold himself pronounces it! haha

    Thanks,

    Hi Vivi,

    I know what you mean. I've entered this in a few bad poetry contest but have been told the same thing - that it's intentionally bad rather than accidentally bad. lol No problem if it doesn't place. I hope it gave you a laugh anyway.

    Ooo, some excrutiatingly irritating examples of forced rhyming in this one! However, maybe it's too intelligent for my contest... hmm, we shall see! Thanks for the entry

    How do you prononounce that name of hers? Seems like a tongue twister to me. I don't know but may be my tongue is short...I always pronounce Arnold's surname as SAUCEMAKER!

    This was hilarious....it's an exemplary poem to all pimple poets as it very clearly demonstrates the ill effects of forced rhyme!

    Anyway it's hilarios but I must admit I've read worse than this, albeit unintentional ones!

    Good luck!

    Beautiful, truly beautiful. An ode to a love that can never be captured truly in mere words. Ah, the essence of springtime and flowers and those funny smelling things that go on the end of pencils.
    And nowers is my favourite new word.

    I'm sorry, but this wasn't bad. It was really funny and made me laugh. It takes a good poem to do that. To be honest with you Mark I don't think you could write bad poetry because you've just got so much of a natural talent that it outshines even when you try bad it will work out good. Hope this does not offend you. This poem was just so funny and good not bad.

    Hey Yemassee,

    Oops, sorry! I forgot to change the comment section since I had my own bad poem contest. That one was strictly for love poems, though. Thanks for giving me the chance to dust this one off. It was a great release for me to write about Penelosquat and get this out of my system after the number she did on me. lol

    I ain't gonna vote fer ya either, Mark, even though this is just about the most hideous thing I have ever read! You already know my favorite line....the jalapeno squirt gets me every time! LOL! Also really howled over "like that Mona chick at the Louvie"....it truly takes talent to write something this bad, so 'tis no wonder I consider you a genius with the pen! You are such a goof, thanks for playing along and putting this in the contest! LOL at you! ~Janet~
