When a Bear Shits in the Woods
#1
Pine trees will chafe, and there’s no pleasant smell.
Cones might get lodged up the anus as well.
Every meal eaten will make this recur.
What you must do when shit sticks to your fur.

Rabbits drop pellets in neat, little piles.
Their coats are like clouds that drift through these trials.
There must be a secret I can infer.
What you must do when shit sticks to your fur.

No problems remain for waste that I pass,
each fuzzy lop is a rag for my ass.
Try it yourself, and I’m sure you’ll concur.

Source: A bear and a rabbit are taking a shit in the woods, the bear turns to the rabbit and says, "Do you have a problem with shit sticking to your fur?" The rabbit says no and the bear wipes his ass with the rabbit.

The prompt was write a joke as a poem.

I remember this one! you are mining those threads well, Todd. It is a shame leanne doesn't pull her joke out and post it here, i thought hers was fantastic as well. Seeing these again makes me think of pulling a couple out myself and sharing them for fun.

Anyway, i read it again, I remember the joke, i enjoyed!

As a side note, you have been very active lately. This means one of two things, either you have lost your job or your muse is getting restless and you are about to produce something great. Here's to hoping it is the latter. (actually, being unemployed might be nicer than feeling obligated to write for the ruthless taskmaster that my muse is).

I'm getting excited to do the NaPM threads again. Leanne's joke was good. There were a lot of good seed ideas in those threads.

I guess the muse is getting restless--unless I'm fired and haven't been told yet. I tend to hibernate for awhile each year, and then come back in manic bursts. Hopefully, the energy will go into the story I'm writing. I'm trying to stay motivated to finish.

I've poked into some of those threads but this is a first read for me. Still grinning.

My guy chased a bear down our road on the way to work last week. Big Grin

What I like best about this is that the kyrielle was traditionally used for religious poetry... not "each fuzzy lop is a rag for my ass"... well, at least not until Advent Big Grin
It could be worse

So, let's see of the two kyrielles I've done:

One is about a horror movie

The other is this one

Yeah, I probably needed to read the memo again. Smile
