A Colour Poem, Cantus Moriar, Style!

For those with slightly less, needlessly complex, minds

A poem By

Ross Edward Fortune Lombardi

.

A rainbow poem

Full of fluff and fun

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

Following the simple rules

As taught by my mum

.

A rainbow poem

Full of fluff and fun

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

Let us go through its spectrum order,

One by cheery one!

.

Feeling red with an embarrassed blush

Now, now, Hush!

To me resorting to such simple mush

.

A rainbow poem

Full of simple sickly sweet

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

To follow a simple formula for money.

To buy an expensive treat.

.

Challenging Orange for me to tackle

Simple changing this lines last word

Made that easy to handle

.

A rainbow poem

Knocked off with no real passion and feeling

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

If I win this challenge with such crap

My laughter will have me reeling!

.

Now to mention that sunny Yellow

To placate some simple reader fellow

Nothing challenging here, just chill, and mellow

.

A rainbow poem

Full of fun and fluff

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

Have you read such rubbish patronising guff?

Have you, yet had enough?

.

I am feeling oh so Blue

About you too.

That such a simple poem is the thing to do.

.

A rainbow poem

Colours and rhymes just slapped down as structural seeder

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

Because to win, appealing to this base audience is what I need-er

I have no respect for vocal or you dear reader

.

Now for Indigo, also known as a type of purple hue

To steal two thousand dollars of vocal cash

This is what I will try and do

.

Oh, dear, I am still four hundred words short

Extending this bilge might give some sport

You know that in some counties still!

Being gay sends you to court?

I now have to shove yet more crap in,

To stop the six-hundred-word count,

From falling too short!

.

Blah! Blah! Filler, Homophobia is bad

Yeh! Yeh! Filler, For silly bigots it makes them mad!

To have some crap poem express this truth might make you glad

Although needing a crap poem to state the obvious makes you kind of sad!

By the way,

“How is your absolutely fabulous Dad?”

Change of subject

I hate the whole human race

I hate their mass common simple taste.

I hate needing to appeal to the Reality Show, Sports Fan, Pleb crowd to get a winning place.

However, I also hate the well-educated pseudo needy

I hate the already stinking rich

Money grabbing greedy

.

Against all Homophobia and bigotry,

That is where I obviously stand.

So, enough of this text padding word filler garbage

Back to this subject at hand.

.

Why hell is a rainbow even considered gay?

Or liking musicals and antiques meant to mean you feel that way?

Why cooking and chick flicks with romantic woo?

Yet I am a straight vagina loving man who loves all that stuff too!

.

I have known huge rough military mussel types

The sort that kills for their flag

Enjoy manly things like killing and meat and showing might

But they also had a penis preferring like.

Such outdated stereotypes of our sexuality

Are a total terrible pile of tripe!

.

How does liking certain shit make you gay?

Gayness (or not), Is all simply random genetic luck

Sexuality is not a kind of favourite music, fashion, or culture

It is just a harmless preference with which you are stuck.

It is not what you like to buy or your hobbies

It is who you like to fuck.

.

Do not be anyone else but yourself, good or bad

Enjoy what the hell you like if it makes you glad.

Do not be a type of any woman or man

Just be human!

You, just be just you!

As hard as you can!

.

A rainbow poem

Full of fluff and fun

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

Following the boring dull rules

As preferred by some

.

A rainbow poem

Full of fluff and fun

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

I have gone through the rainbow spectrum order,

Cheery One by one!

.

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

All listed off as so much mere writer hash.

I stopped giving a shit

Now!

Just give me that fucking cash!

.

I can STILL never win this challenge! So please tip!
