Just glancing over the thread topics on the front page and they began writing a twisted little story in my mind.
I imagine a random visitor reviewing the front page and getting a similar first impression.
I made a short poem from them.
I got plans for the night

Gonna get a backpacker blowjob

and celebrate my birthday with a bad nun

Why am I up so late?

Coffee grounds, man. Three cheers for coffee grounds.
I want 3 hots and a cot

I know I'm getting old

I got cake in the chamber and a canker

But I saw a great rack at the flea market
What are you smoking?

I detect a certain flare for prose along with a hint of postmodernism.

Oh, gawd, novelist. You *had* to say it. Now all you've done is incorrige him, & he was incorrigible enough as it was!

I can imagine you snapping your fingers wearing a little beret, and Bill in the corner tapping on a bongo drum.

Jay has numerous times demonstrated his skills as a wordsmith here. He is, after all, along with being ship's gunner aboard the 'Frigate,' also our ship's bard. In fact just to prove my point... I'm going to post six words and dare him to write a little diddy involving these six words....
deck

rum

pineapple

unicorn

busty

platypus
Take it away, Jay!

jaytex, I really like the free verse word association there. I think pipe and tobacco poems are difficult, since the activity is something of an art form in itself, but you've got it going.
