What is the haggle?
All befuddled?
Out of the muddle
Spread in the middle

Can you recall?
Anything at all?
Try not to fall
For a spamming 'doll'

Throws an offer
Tickles your desire
Wait for the blabber
And get caught in their power
(44 words)

  1. I love this picture! This is a poem we all find ourselves in one time or another, and then kick ourselves for it.

  4. Ha... and all of the sudden you're in the jaws of a praying mantis.

  5. 'Tickles your desire
    Wait for the blabber
    And get caught in their power' -
    is this about a praying mantis or a disgruntled dumped partner?

  6. Nice lines: "Try not to fall
    For a spamming 'doll'" I definitely don't want to fall for one of those.
