Le contest de poetry

ATTENTION ALL: THE FIRST ANNUAL "LE CONTEST DE POETRY" OF "LE BLOG DE MELLYDOODLE" HAS COMMENCED.

There will be one, and ONLY ONE, winner. I request that between now (12:26 am on Tuesday...Wednesday?) and Sunday at 5:00 pm EST you post your best piece of poetry as a comment. There are NO RULES. You may:
-use profanity. in fact, you may get extra points for it, especially if it rhymes.
-use any format you want, whether haiku or iambic pentameter or some shit you made up. not like i'm gonna research it.
-trash talk anyone and even use their name. i do not sue. though i do know a lot of people in law school.
-confess your deepest, darkest secrets. in fact, you SHOULD do this.

I will come up with my own points system. It will not be statistically valid nor reliable. If I laugh, a lot, you will probably get a lot of points. This is not the time for sappy crappy stuff. Pretend that you are a funny version of Carrot Top.

Readers-----start your submissions!!

I swear if no one posts anything I will freak the fuck out.

Were you drunk or sober when you concocted the idea for this contest?

Humpty Dumpty: A True Hollywood Nursery Rhyme

Before Humpty fell off the wall he had another fall. A tragic turn of events in Humpty’s life is what led to this heartbreaking story … The real story of why Humpty Dumpty fell off the wall. A True Hollywood Nursery Rhyme…

Before…
Humpty Dumpty had his great fall
Humpty Dumpty puked in a stall
Smashed in the bathroom full of women
Poor Humpty fell off the wagon again

Humpty Dumpty awoke still drunk
Humpty Dumpty smelled of great funk
Laying there wondering what happened last night
Humpty rolled over with a face full of fright

Then…
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had his great fall
All the King’s horses and all the King’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again!

It was obvious that Humpty was in pieces before this catastrophic event. And now all we are left with is this big if... that is… if all the King’s men would have reached out to put Humpty back together before his great fall, instead of after, then what could have been… however, we are only left to wonder.

Please join us next week to find out whose bush WAS the mulberry bush? And how it really made the weasel go pop! Only on True Hollywood Nursery Rhyme.
