I Spy With My Little Eye……

Doggerel Dave


Notice of absence from Doggerel Dave
Not absent - still here!
Keep Calm and Carry On Poeming. 😂

She’s back again, I do believe

Teddy.15’s settling in

For a time, but ready to leave;

A third exit, additional spin.

                         .

Thus how to complete the hat trick?

First, having been quite offensive,

Inarticulate complaints thick

With recriminations extensive;

                           .

(This pattern worked so well times past!)

One more attempt to get rid of

Dave fails - can’t believe it: flabbergast

She exits in a cloud of “love”….

                            .

Turn the other cheek you clown

They say; but I’ve only got two.

Suggested I whip my pants down -

‘Poetic Justice’ from the crew….. That you? 🙃

    I for myself must not antagonise people - with inappropriate (NS) daft comments at times, or however I may upset folk.
    It's no use me waking up any sleeping dogs - they are likely to bite me!
    Not that I never get upset myself, but I do tend to take the passive approach.

    • Doggerel Dave

      So wot are you saying here? can we assume that positive action will arise from such deep introspection, orchi?

      • orchidee

        I shall probably continue being Sir Orchi NS. lol.

        • Doggerel Dave

          Yeh - that does seem the most likely outcome.....

        • arqios

          How have I been oblivious to these goings on? Hope all gets smoothened out 👍🏻

          • Doggerel Dave

            Really Rik?

            • arqios

              Sad, but I can get quite oblivious to what goes on around me.

              • Doggerel Dave

                It is a gift, I'd say Rik, sometimes.......

              • sorenbarrett

                Dave I like you both what am I to do? The best for me is to stay out of this and hope you both put on the other shoe

                • Doggerel Dave

                  Thought we had covered this, Soren. Since you feel the need to be all things to all people (and I don't know how you do it - MPS must take up a hellava lot of your time - I know it does mine, and my input is much less than yours) then best you keep your antenna fully extended and avoid any contribution which could potentially disturb/antagonise either party.

                  Great poem and rant,
                  sad to hear you two
                  poets are on the outs..😢
                  Hope you two have
                  a truce, in the near future.😊
                  Best regards ✌️ Thad

                  • Doggerel Dave

                    Thanks for the read, Thad. Unfortunately this is a long standing feud. So I very much doubt it.

                    Funnier things have happened, I know.... but🤷🏻

                    • Thad Wilk

                      Oh, what are those little
                      ( Red flames ) on different
                      Poets poems mean!?
                      Can you asplain it.... 🤔

                      • Doggerel Dave

                        With you all the way - I don't understand them either...
                        There's a 'contact us' just below - I'm going to hassle them once more....

                        • Julian Yanover

                          Hi guys. It's attached to poems that entered the "Trending now" box. A little souvenir. Like they were "on fire".. a bit cheesy, yes...

                          • Doggerel Dave

                            Thanks for the info, Julian. We'll suffer....🙃

                            I have always believed there is a point beyond which there can be no

                            • Doggerel Dave

                              Return? And thus we may inhabit our separate wildernesses drawing comfort and succor where we find.......

                              • Neville



                                it ..

                                • Doggerel Dave

                                  I do believe so......

                                • Cheeky Missy

                                  Aha! Me finally catches your drift, you riot. Well, if you like taking it on the bare buttocks [or whatever you Brits call it], then I guess you can turn the other cheek... and loudly expel a noxious odor to contribute further to the ridiculous situation. For my part, I think I'll maybe give the silly parties their way who've blocked me craz'ly for unknown causes, other than finding me as real and lively as ever. Having left this site to rot after the enjoyment lost its appeal 14 years ago, and only visiting to post once annually, if at all, methinks I'll return to that since this drama is more than I like, and since my own existence has taken a turn for such excitement as leaves the online world too little worth the trouble. I do love this piece. Beautifully rendered with a haunting poignancy and superb humor, not to mention excellent imagery. Thank you very much for sharing.

                                  • Doggerel Dave

                                    Took no effort at all, Missy – in fact it was both imperative and (dare I say?) enjoyable. How to counter effectively much open aggression? I felt better for it.
                                    Do I read there that you are about to depart once more? Go on – reconsider. Though pleased if you have found more fertile pastures.
                                    I wish you luck whichever way you go.
                                    Oh – and thanks for the fave.

                                    • Cheeky Missy

                                      Oh, but you're very welcome, my pleasure entirely. You see, growing up in my father's house with no less than six younger brothers and all my dad's uncles, I'm more accustomed to you boys than girls. You're all too fun and that's possibly why I'm such a little pain, while believing I must be surely loved. Thank you again! Maybe if my circumstances permit I'll post...I mean, I was fully intending to do so today anyway, so we'll see.

                                      • Doggerel Dave

                                        I'm beginning to think I've received more attention than I really deserve.... Thanks once more and I wish you well whichever way you go.
                                        Take care of yourself.

                                        • Cheeky Missy

                                          Well, your avatar should suffice alongside your charming username to give you attention and affection. Thanks again!

                                          Oh! Very Cheeky.😁😁😁

                                          • Doggerel Dave

                                            Me or Missey?🙃🙃🙃
