 Example Poem

Form a Study Group (KyRenn)









In lieu of study I chased skirts, 
Could not resist a girl that flirts. 
In life's a meal they were desserts. 
Their pheromones are my alerts. 

When any girl would wish to play, 
she knew she'd get this guy's okay. 
If there's  a party - right this way,
just hurry, hurry, ándale.* 

My education, this subverts, 
this frivolity on display. 
I think to change, but mind reverts- 
Exciting curves!  Enticing sway! 

I'd never cause a girl to fret 
or leave my presence with regret 
or leave them wanting on a bet 
should their own appetite be whet. 

If fun is mutual and fair 
and drug abuse you do not bear 
just seize the joy while it is there 
for when you're eighty you won't care. 

If on the way a mate is met
and each excites each anywhere, 
that is as good as things can get, 
so marry her and homework share.
