Poetry Contest

a comical spoof.
Basically choose an older poem of yours (or one from a fellow poet with their premission) and make it into a comical spoof.

You must post a link to the original poem for I can compare.

Doesn't have to be family friendly, could be whatever.

One post per person plz

Good luck! 😈

National Hard Working Sexy Single Mothers Holiday

 
Lordie be Sug I do believe that they oughta' run your picture in a magazine, newspaper or something like that. 'Cause you're such an overly dedicated hard working woman. I mean if you weren't actually sinkin' in a river of debt, I'd say, "Quit that job and let 'em find another lackey to do their bidding for a few days.” And I know you're seriously depending on every dime to make ends meet. But babe, I'm seriously sick and tired of you working so much to the point where it seems like you're working yourself to the grave instead of working to make a living. They need to dedicate a holiday to women like you it should be known as The National Hard Working Sexy Single Mothers Holiday.

For shit sakes, I'm gonna complain and protest like hell declaring there ought to be some sort of a law against working that way! In fact, I feel like going up to your boss and telling 'em you're taking off this weekend to celebrate The National Hard Working Sexy Single Mothers Holiday.

Oh, honey, believe it or not, I can almost definitely feel the strain that your job is putting on you. It's no joke that you seriously need a much needed and deserved break from your unappreciative undeserving boss of yours whom you work for.  Hell if the union won't speak on your behalf, then I guess it's up to me to do so. Bossman needs to take your job and shove it up his arse because this lady of mine is taking a break to celebrate The National Hard Working Sexy Single Mothers Holiday!!

I sort of feel as though everyone at work is just taking advantage of your dependable hard-working loyalty and not giving you the credit you truly deserve. I mean is it not true that everybody likes a little time and a half for themselves to get away and recuperate after working themselves nearly half death!? Yeah,  we both know you're worth more than what you're being paid you need to get away this weekend and celebrate The National Hard Working Sexy Single Mothers Holiday!!

Yeah I think today is the day that I will call in sick for you and I'll be telling the truth because I'm sick and tired of them treating you this way.I'll tell them you've worked hard enough and long enough and you need time to get away so you can relax and celebrate The National Hard Working Sexy Single Mothers Holiday that you so deserve!!!

The Rent's Due, Time To Move

 
  


Throw at me your blunders
so I will catch more shit
things you pull that make me wonder
just who's in charge of dirty tricks  

Flooding rivers and this fucking heat
dead leaves to rake and burn
snow which gathers up pass my ass
yet you show no concern  

Go ahead, pile it on
take another shot
you'll not phase me with all this sleaze
as I watch you rot

Oceans full of plastics
and smog to fill the skies
my cares are quite elastic
of creatures that may die  

My narcissistic tendencies
the reason for my ways
disavowing dependency
is why you hold no sway

For when it's all said and done
I'll leave this place behind
to seek another rock out there
and continue to live blind



Thanks for nothin', ma.

Humankind





Parody of my poem

Spells like mean spirit

Load up on puns, and zing your friends
It's fun to play and then to win
ArienellJones and Snugglebuck
Oh no, I know just rhymed with fuck
 
Yelluw, JusTim_, Eerie, Yolo
How do, you know, how to, def flo?
I know, how low, I'd go, to know
Fellow, follow, Yelluw
 
With some wite-out, I'm less dangerous
Punderstanding, is less heinous
I'm with stupid... ignoramus
All alone...ow, rode the short bus
 
I'm mistreated, and Miss Tree-did,  and mystery-dead, my Mist reeded
Yeah, hay
 
The worse puns what I do best
And for this curse I must digress
Our DU group has always been
The best of poetasting friends
 
Daniel, Nephele, FeNyX, you know
How do, you know, how to, get flo?
 And not the gal who insures autos
PositivelyDark and Drone
 
In the White House, is an anus
Tweeting doodles to enflame us
I'd be stupid, just to name it
Chester Cheeto, mighty famous

Thank you, DevilsChild, though I did miss the mark somewhat in the comical sense of the comp, I did enjoy revisiting one of my earlier pieces and taking a different slant on it.
I have enjoyed many of Weird Al's parodies over the years and took this opportunity to again listen to a few on YouTube.
Since I'm now 70 years old, may I offer this I found today, to in small way make up for my shortcoming in the comp.

Again, thanks and hope you enjoy this find.
Teri
