The Collection Of Miscellanea
6 Comments:
I reckon that's the best fridge poetry I've heard in a good while... lol!
Thanks :)
It was especially challenging because the collection is filled with "happy" and "inspirational" words (all in the present tense, as well) - the only, totally bizarre, exception being the word "death" - so it was more exciting to see if I could write The Macabre with happy words.
You have fridge poetry?!
I only own 3 words - sex / behind / cutlass.
I like to think that they come from the Porno For Pirates™ set.
Nice poem :)
Um... "Porno For Pirates™"? I don't even know what to say.
But I may need to borrow those words.
And yes, I have Fridge Poetry™. A work-parting gift from the aforementioned Sarah (who is amazingly also the Sarah above).
So now I can assemble poems if I don't feel like writing them by hand.
It was a play on the band name "Porno for Pyros".
I thought it was pretty good, actually..
I just thought the whole idea is something that should be marketted immediately - and now someone is going to steal it!
That may be in the spirit of piracy but it's not in the spirit of fostering my happiness.
