Buried in a Thong

Missing image

Buried in a Thong

She found a place a cozy place
A place that she can rest
She’s dead and gone without a trace
They buried her undressed
She found her place, a cozy spot
A lovely shade tree graveyard plot
She found her place
She found her place
She never should have smoked that pot

When all the spooks come out at night
Amera’s with them too
They rattle chains and cause a fright
Amera just says “boo”
She’s sad at times it’s not much fun
Her coffin’s only built for one
She’s sad at times
She’s sad at times
But she will never be outdone

She drifts about this hussy ghost
A dead girl in a thong
She looks for men she likes the most
And chants a spooky song
Still writes poems of men proposing
Death to her was not a closing
Still writes poems
Still writes poems
So we say she’s decomposing

Trijan Refrain:
The Trijan Refrain, created by Jan Turner, consists of three 9-line stanzas, for a total of 27 lines. Line 1 is the same in all three stanzas, although a variation of the form is not to repeat the same line at the beginning of each stanza. In other words, the beginning line of each stanza can be different. The first four syllables of line 5 in each stanza are repeated as the double-refrain for lines 7 and 8. The Trijan Refrain is a rhyming poem with a set meter and rhyme scheme as follows:
Rhyme scheme: a/b/a/b/c/c/d,d refrain of first 4 words of line five /c
Meter: 8/6/8/6/8/8/4, 4 refrain/8

    Your poems are great civic events. There is fanfare regarding form and your following of commentators would make a queen envious. Thank you for the entry.

    What a way to go. It shows she knew how to live. And, as always you found a truly unique way of telling the tale. I love it when you use this form.

    I see you have learned to pronounce poems

    The Trijan Refrain suits your humour perfectly, and you execute it (and apparently execute yourself) perfectly.
    I have no doubt you will be writing long after you are dead!

    I'm buried in a thong
    Butt floss is what I say!
    I know its really wrong
    To show my ass that way!

    This is really a humorous poem and its yet another new form I didn't know about! Pam

    Oh, sing to me my spirit love
    I promise not to flee
    To see you floating there above
    Puts goosebumps over me
    I beckon you, we join to dance
    Our lonely lips can’t help advance
    I beckon you
    I beckon you
    And we begin our necromance


    Very funny! Have three bunny.

      You think you are the only spook
      that hears my little song
      I think you are a silly kook
      And you just want my thong
      I’ll take it off and make you smile
      It really isn’t much my style
      I’ll take it off
      I’ll take it off
      You better walk me down the aisle

        Perhaps I’m not the only spook
        Enchanted by your thong
        But my love is beyond rebuke
        Together we belong
        Yes take it off the wedding’s on
        I cannot wait until it’s gone
        Yes take it off
        Yes take it off
        We’ll rock the gravestones off the lawn
