Thank goodness for normality and all its ins and outs I’d much prefer to kiss your arse but it’s your front bottom that pouts Normality, normality why don’t you show your face Coz if things don’t cool down a bit they’ll lead us to disgrace The sun is down, the moon is up, events have got quite queer And I’ve lost another shoelace in this giant vat of beer The time has come for all good men to try their fucking best So be a darl and quickly put away that bouncy breast Normality I beg of you descend upon my brow You've made me drop my salad and you've burnt my slice of cow All sense if there was ever some has flown right out the door Coz even though its closing time I think I’ll have one more It's nothing new for me to be content with talking shit A difference it makes not to me, not the slightest fucking bit So when I ask for normalness and more beer from a tap Just humor me and sit right here and keep on talking crap

The finest 'Vulgar Poeme' on poemranker, at least of those I've read recently. Line two needs tweaking, the rhythm's out slightly.

'I've lost another shoelace in this giant vat of beer'
'You've made me drop my salad and you've burnt my slice of cow'
'It's nothing new for me to be content with talking shit'

!!!!!
Please keep posting :-D

Bullseye. That line two has bugged me for ages. I love it nonetheless even though the rhythem stinks. I'll see what I can do.

Such perception. I do skim sometimes and miss the point entirely. Case in point the recent Spider one. I thought it was about boobs and babies!

Weird spelling and not much talent.

Typos! Word 12 in line 2 should read 'cunt'.

"And I’ve lost another shoelace in this giant vat of beer."

just when i was ready to write it off as a futile exercise, that line saves the poem.

Normality is not grammatically incorrect, but it's generally referred to as normalcy. not that that's a good thing.

Ironic. The shoelace line was a filler. Making up new words can be fun. The perplextness is causes in others delights me.
