Dear John?
Dear John, or is it Shawn?
With all your lies
(especially about size)
it's hard to see through your disguise
Sorry about the car, (not)
I left quite a scar
it even shines from afar, (oops)
By the way,
when your status read
"it's complicated"
I thought you said constipated
so I put five laxatives in your coffee.
Don't be frustrated
Did I forget to mention?
I dropped your toothbrush in the porcelain invention.
I hope this doesn't cause us tension
I did you a favor
you can thank me later
I told your boss how much you hate her.
Maybe now she'll change her behavior
I know I said size doesn't matter, (lie)
I was only trying to flatter
the ego for your tally whacker
Did you know you had a wife
three kids and another life? (me either)
Not trying to cause you any strife
(I called her)
She suspected I existed
you'll have to be more gifted
if you want to stay this twisted.

I really laughed...all the way through....this was really point on....
Did I forget BY THE WAY, Oh, did I mention?
I dropped your toothbrush in the porcelain invention.
I hope NOT TO cause us WAY TOO MUCH NEW tension
this makes this a 12-12-12 stanza for meter...It's a thought..to tackle it numerically....

Thanks! :D
Yeah, I thought about going through and fixing the metering. I may do so. Thanks for the thought. :)

That is quite possibly one of the most entertaining poems I've read! I don't know about metering and things like that and have no advice but I imagine anyone would enjoy reading your work and this one is really fun. I'm going to read it again now! :)

I liked the way you did (this), it added more of a visual aspect to your poem. It was amusing yet still a poem; still with some sort of structure and I'm impressed with your well-incorporated rhyme scheme. Very nice work!
