Damn the Hamn!

By DIATRICUS

all that shim sham, flim flam
got me stuck in a tight jam
eat the cream pie, but not the sweet yam
forget the oysters, stick with clam

sounds too trite?
then take another bite
of that silly, slack, hot air contrite
best hold onto slippery stalagtite

it's a fool who knows the play
bets his cards like crap, but luck gives him the day
pulling in 2-pair, on the river, holds the sway
oh, and I love the hair, by-the-way

substance lacking is the norm
easy on the eyes, loved her form
shoot the shit, watch some porn
loving all the ladies, in the women's dorm

all the world over, we seek the finest
from East to West, they plagued your Highness
she prefers it rough, slaps are much better than kindness
she was the world to me, but saw it not, for the blindness

    Now this is a nice, cool, slick write. Love the rhythm--it thumps. "she prefers it rough, slaps are much better than kindness,"--decadent line, I relate.
