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)

Tricky for sure, Hank!
ReplyDeleteI love this picture! This is a poem we all find ourselves in one time or another, and then kick ourselves for it.
ReplyDeleteConfused me!
ReplyDeleteSuper fun word bump here, Hank. LOVE all those sounds!
ReplyDeleteGreat words Hank. Well done.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Ha... and all of the sudden you're in the jaws of a praying mantis.
ReplyDelete'Tickles your desire
ReplyDeleteWait for the blabber
And get caught in their power' -
is this about a praying mantis or a disgruntled dumped partner?
Great fun to read!
ReplyDeleteTickled indeed! :)
ReplyDeleteNice lines: "Try not to fall
ReplyDeleteFor a spamming 'doll'" I definitely don't want to fall for one of those.
Avoidance is the key here. Well penned!
ReplyDeleteNo falling for it, run for a bit
