Transient troubadour traverses terrestrial terrain

rew4er2nail

'Course as a grim teller of tall tales,

(albeit poetic) reasonable rhyming

quasi roundelay I readily admitted to feign

cuz, stringing words together with

pride and prejudice plus

sense and sensibility, jocularity,

and conformity I dissed deign

(spoiler alert) iamb, trochaic,

dactylic, and anapestic metrical reign

jest your ordinary garden variety

dollar short day late dime a dozen

penniless citizen banker Abel and Cain,

yet mine mean mien blithely, daringly,

fatuously, ludicrously, nauseatingly,

pretentiously playfully urbane

 

many (if not all readers)

will coon sitter

yours truly harmlessly insane,

whose feeble attempts

to wax and wane

oft times falls flat (splat goes Matt)

as if dropped out plane,

without a parachute

instantly recuperating while lain

supine (winded, but...

none the worse) asthma brain

suffers concussion, confusion, contusion

actually, immediately, and unexpectedly

knocked fluent German speaking ability

within germane guy verständlich?

 

If ye really comprehend

trademark non Turkish gobbledygook

then explain (using

language of least familiarity),

but best to commence

with eye catching hook

impossible mission

apt lit pupils (mine)

to evade even momentarily

riveting, spellbinding,

and transfixing look

courtesy ingenious way

with word ye snook

cored me and took

wind out my sails.

 

Nor could I breakaway courtesy automobile,

cuz 2009 Hyundai Sonata

would not start... yea for real,

thus finding me ready to yoke

neck (think gibbet) each heel

dangling as body goes limp

blessedly, finally, happily

ridding me of any/all hangups,

one less goo goo gaga born this way

poker face cards for him to deal.


UNGABLUZUM describes this schlemiel!
