Valley Dack Kelbon

After writing the first poem with 4 Jim Guy authors, we decided to write another the next day, while still at the cabin. This time we decided to have a little bit more structure, as the first was totally open, with no rhyme or meter. This one has a tad more. It is written, again, in our trademark random style. We also slightly varied the authoring order so that no one author would be stuck with a line sequence all throughout. Basically, it starts out in this order: PhLo, Marcus, Jim, David. Then David writes the first line of the next stanza. So it continues in this way, the 4th author writing 2 lines consecutively.

Valley Dack Kelbon

a poem by PhLo, Marcus, Jim and David
July 27, 2007

There once was a land where was spoken
a mystical tongue of piggies
bathing a freely audible snort
frolicking and dancing jiggies

But fun could not last for under the bay
Because of the fastening depths
Poor submerged piggy welcomed his doom
amongst outcast tulips for Seths

Thou no such person he was; could be
he roosts at the store down the street
Encountering Janice last Tuesday
Seth consumed her eyebrows and feet.

Senseless man-micks conformed his great skull,
delightfully creaming on slop
A beacon of majestic storm drain,
The end just cause: fill skull with pop.

My Kirby was bitten by dog sound
cloven in twain betwixt Seth's tins!
Yon cilia shake with boogy town
leaving behind all seven pins
