A new challenge to fill the gap between now and the deadline for Challenge 2... The prompt is simple: write the worst love poem you can think of. Cheesy or just plain not flattering. The deadline will be May 5th. For example: Your eyes are like eyes... Your lips are like... lips... You're a really good cook You get the idea.

Here's my attempt:
Your hair is like thick, fresh spring mud Your eyes are the green of a scummy pond Your lips are scabby as a child's skinned knee Your skin is like butter in color and texture Your nose is too big, but I don't mind It makes your caterpillar eyebrows seem smaller Your clothes aren't in style and you never look good But at least you're a good enough cleaner and cook

An ode to my love
Your acne is like a trail of bread crumbs, leading straight to my heart, When you stare through me with those eyes, baby-vomit green, I can see our future together, our trailer house and seven half-naked feral children, when you speak at me, "woman get me a sam'ich" I realize that even though your intellect is far below mine, we complete each other.
This one was fun!

Your skin is as smooth as snake skin. Your eyes remind me of boogers. When you're with me, I see our future together One that involves a murky pond Filled with Desolate Creatures Odd, Creepy-Crawly Creepers Our Dream Date awaits To take us to the fitness club Our Dream house Filled with nooks and crannies filled with dust Did I mention the spiderwebs? I've gone on too long I think For seeing you on the ground like that I think you may have died With skin like paste
(My version of a poem. Not much rhyming, but I hope it gets the job done)

Here's another one I thought up this morning:
Roses Are Red Violets Are Blue Pigs Rolling in Mud Are Just as Sweet as You

Okay, Challenge 3 is officially closed. I'd say it was a success. Kimani and Axle, you both went beyond what I had imagined. Very funny.
