Poetry Challenge answered

Lot of things rhyme with scrip, not so many with appendage
If you scrip, you can raise bucks, and control your spendage
Yes this poem a challenge was, there may be word bendage
But when you scrip, remember this, the school gets a percentage.

I did it

yes, the challenge did start with a conversation involving FSM somehow.....

May I have some of your oddness, Monster?
My supply is running low.

My friend didn't think I'd manage a scrip poem with the word appendage in it -or at least not with appendage as the main rhyme

I'll bite: what's a scrip poem?

Oranges?

Oranges poranges, who says,
oranges poranges, who says,
oranges poranges, who says?
there ain't no rhyme for oranges?

Scrip is the fundraiser I run at the school. I write weekly "news" which frequently includes terribly poetry about scrip. It started with a haiku and snowballed. But so did the income, so they let me get away with it

Sorry I thought I'd bored you all enough about scrip. We sell gift cards for high street stores and keep a % of the face value. It raises about 20K a year.

Does Flying Spaghetti Monster's noodly appendage
Encounter touching problems due to flaccid noodle bendage?
Would the lord of all things noodly smite me from his clientage
If I dared suggest a design flaw in his outreaching touching endage?

I failed?

Shawnee123 · 03-01-2011, 01:57 PM

lmao!

No, I just never accepted that as a reasonable rhyme for oranges. I tried to think of a retort, like "Port rhymes with I tried to think of a retort" but as you see, I could just use retort.

Besides, I don't say "I would like some OOR-hinge juice." That's too much like "Cool WHHHip." Cool Whhhhip.

(I've lost my ever-lovin' marbles.)

And you're on report.

monster · 03-01-2011, 02:02 PM

more whinges?
